bricka is enlightened. I thought it was an adjective!

That's debatable. As I have always understood from you, Io, Bulgarian is not a serious enough language to be considered a "real" language.

Personally, I think milimeters would be best. Bristel is 1905 mm, or 1,905,000,000 nanometers. Or 2% the length of a football field.

We were discussing how Finnish adjectives act like nouns. Then Yiuel said that French adjectives and nouns might be even more similar than those of Finnish. Then I said...

Maybe Finnish doesn't have to either; maybe it just does it to piss the rest of the languages off.

More specifically, Finnish wants to piss Swedish off.

I'm no stalker, but that seems quite different from Xonen. And our other Finns, too, come to think of it.

I'm also not a homophobe, but that is just bizarrely surreal. It kinda freaks me out.
And 'truly' is correct spelling.

It's actually pretty accurate, I think. Except, of course, that the guy is speaking (heavily accented) Swedish, not Finnish. So as an "interpretation of Finnish", it kinda fails.
Not that the picture with the dragon and the bear was any better, though. Finnish is the bear, dammit, and it's about to kick the dragon's ass.

What does that mean? I didn't offend you, did I? I was just thinking of their grammatical structure. I see Finnish as having more bells and whistles than Swedish, and that's why I drew it as an eight-armed dragon. Also, I see Swedish as being a "'yellow' language for some reason, and Finnish a light red one.

Swedish is defintely a yellow language. But Finnish is a light blue, metallically one.

Horribly. But that should be the least of your worries right now; what's much worse is that you have offended the mighty Bear. Never enter the forest again, or face His terrifying wrath.
