Hi guys! I found this old storybook in my parents' place. I thought you might enjoy hearing some old-fashioned Finnish, so here we go!
Translating this kind of Finnish was a little challenging, and I decided not to try to translate it word for word (I believe that would be very hard to understand). The story even had some phrases that I wasn't familiar with, but I did my best to translate the meaning of them.
Here's my playlist of old Finnish stories:

Enjoy the story! 😊
Nowadays I offer Finnish lessons on iTalki (an affiliate link ): www.italki.com/affshare?ref=a... If you register through this link, you get $10 to use in iTalki! To book a lesson with me, you have to make an iTalki account first.

The purpose of this channel is to help you learn Finnish in a natural and relaxing way. In this video, subtitles are available in Finnish and English in the beginning of the video, and once the story starts, in English only. Finnish text can be seen on the pages of the book!

I enjoy the book your reading to us. I don't understand anything but I'm trying to learn Finnish. It helps to pronounce the words. I recommend doing more videos if your able to like this one. Thank you. Your doing a great job.

I very much enjoyed this story, but .... if I want it in my langauge tool I will need to type in the Finnish text. Still, thank you for the video and the story, I very much appreciate it! EDIT: I might be able to use my phone to get the type the text. I will keep you appraised.
