Lenguas speaking Finnish

[Lenguas]

Here's a recording of me speaking Finnish. What do you think of it?

It's easily understandable, but the vowels qualities are at times a bit off, for example Välimereen sounds like you're saying Välimeriin. You are obviously reading a text and that makes you sound a bit robotic.

Hi Lenguas!

It's pretty good, in my opinion. A few comments:

- As maeng said - you should pay more attention to the distinction between /i/ and /e/. Now it sounds to me that most of the time you're mixing them up.
- Also pay attention to the differences between long and short vowels. I think you got the long/short consonants pretty well.
- The stress could be more clearly on the first syllable, which is one of the most defining aspects of Finnish intonation. Now it sounded like you put the stress on about every syllable, maybe because you were trying to pronounce the words so carefully (maybe this is what maeng meant by robotic)
