Generally speaking English is the most popular language and Swedish is the least popular. All foreign languages are useful, but it is perhaps true to say that in the business world French is less useful than Spanish or Russian. Some foreign languages are more difficult than others. For Finnish students French is more difficult than German, but not as difficult as Russian. Swedish is easier to pronounce than Spanish, but English is the easiest. French is as difficult to pronounce as Russian. 7.18 Exercise - Translate this text into English Jane: Minne aiot mennä lomallasi Mike? Mike: Aion mennä New Yorkiin, se on jännittävin kaupunki, jonka tunnen. Jane: Niin, mutta eikö se ole myös vaarallinen kaupunki, etenkin yöllä? Mike: Kyllä, se voi olla aika vaarallinen, mutta jos olet varovainen, pärjäät kyllä. Siellä ei ole niin vaarallista kuin Los Angelesissa. Siellä on eniten rikollisuutta maailmassa. Jane: Minä pidän rauhallisista lomailupaikoista. Minä menen Edinburghiin tänä vuonna. Mike: Miksi Edinburghiin? Jane: Se on hyvin kiinnostava kaupunki. Itse asiassa se on Skotlannin vanhin kaupunki, ja kaikkein kiinnostavin. Siellä on muutamia upeita museoita ja taidegallerioita. Minä pidän ihmisistä Edinburghissa, he ovat paljon kohteliaampia ja huomaavaisempia kuin ihmiset Lontoossa. Mike: Minä pidän Skotlannista myös. Mutta en pidä Skotlantilaisesta ruuasta paljon, ravintolat ovat kalliimpia kuin Lontoossa, eikä ruoka ole kovin herkullista. Jane: Mutta Mike, maailmassa on tärkeämpiä asioita kuin ruoka! Mike: Niinkuin mikä esimerkiksi? 7.19 Quiz about Finland 1. What's the biggest city in Finland? 2. What's the second biggest city in Finland? 3. What's the name of Finland's largest lake? 4.
