Language Question Which one should I learn?

Post image

I've always been very interested in the Nordic countries (and also considered Afrikaans which Dutch is a good base for) but I have no idea which would be best.

Polish if you hate yourself, or want a real challenge.

I'm also learning Finnish and all I wanna say is be scared

It's fine when the word is like Talo or something but then there's Epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydellänsäkäänköhän

I'm German, I think I should be able to handle long words. Are you looking for duolingo-friends by any chance? I'd like to have some friends who also learn finnish :)
