About the Estonian languageEstonian is spoken by about 1.1 million people worldwide, around 950,000 of whom live in Estonia itself. It is a member of the Finno-Ugric language family, being closely related to Finnish and more distantly so to Hungarian. It's not an Indo-European language such as French or Spanish, and as a result the vast majority of words in Estonian will look thoroughly unfamiliar to someone whose mother tongue is English. Estonian is certainly not considered to be an easy language to learn for English-speakers. However, don't be put off! With a little practice, you should soon find yourself able to get by in most everyday situations. |
So why learn Estonian?You enjoy a challenge It sounds beautiful It's rewarding |
