How did connections with the Korean language occur, Edith? The Huns.... They are Mongolians who attacked Korea as well. |

And could you tell me please how to say "I love Michael Emerson" in Finnish? So funny, your word for food sounds similar to our word "cooking" which is "kokkaus".  "I love Michael Emerson" is "Minä rakastan Michael Emersonia". Note the suffix (here "ia"), which foreigners think are very difficult to learn. How do you say it in Mari? Do you have Ä and Ö in Mari language? Estonian language is, by the way, very similar to Finnish, we understand each other quite well. It sounds little bit funny/poetic to our ears, one friend once said it is like a "language of gnomes" to us. Edith: Also very interesting to hear (read) Hungarian language! |

Great:) we also have these letters - ü, ö, but I don`t know how to print them on my keyboard.. Imádom Michael Emersont - I`ll learn it:) Use this list of codes: www.yellowpipe.com/yis/tools/ASCII-HTML-Characters/index.phpIn the column "Numerical Code," the &# stands for the alt key. Hence, for ü, you press the alt button, and type 0252 from your number keyboard on the side of the keyboard. (Somehow it doesn't work with laptops and laptop-type of keyboards.) Or you can just copy/past off of that list. |

I love Michael Emerson Imádom Michael Emersont I love Michael Emerson" is "Minä rakastan Michael Emersonia". Note the suffix (here "ia"), which foreigners think are very difficult to learn. Interesting! I didn't know that other languages add suffixes to Michael's last name; I thought that his entire name would stay the same. I'm curious. Why is it changed? |

Why is it changed?Every language is unique and has historically established features maybe In russian Michael Emerson will be sound as Mihail (stress on the last syllable - Miha`il) in my native Mari it will be sound Miklai (Mik`lai)
