How hard would it be to learn finnish?

[ChyonE]

Would it be worth it to learn enough finnish to understand this game?

I doubt it would really be worth the time and effort. Not that I can stop you from doing it

There are many differences between the written and spoken Finnish. And this game contains some slangs / dialects around Finland, so it might be difficult to understand. But it's always worth it to study new things.

Well, if you plan to move to Finland because you love rallying, Datsun and forest, then why not

It is considered a very difficult language to learn to speak, or even to read or write because of how much interpretation you need to use for even basic sentences. Don't recommend at all.

After digging in a bit of the language... Not worth the time and effort lol

88 is kahdeksankymmentäkahdeksan. Kahdeksankymmentä = 80 (literally "eight tens"), kahdeksan = 8. Viisi means five, not sure where you got that from.

On topic, it's a difficult language which has little resemblance to others you may know, I wouldn't say it's worth the effort to learn just for the game. Even if you visit Finland it's easier to learn some phrases (and everyone speaks English anyway)

Really?... nice ghost bump spam

I have 0 knowledge of this, but wouldn't this mean there's less to learn? If more is based on context?

i imaging very difficult as is in the Scandinavian Peninsula which they got much more different language rather than Europe which owns the Latin alphabet

1) Finland, except for the very northern parts, is not a part of Scandinavian Peninsula.
2) All Nordic countries use the Latin alphabet. How that'd make a language harder or easier to learn is beyond me.
