I'm making a song out of the Finnish text on the body lotion bottles (well not really bottles but I can't fins the word right now...). I'm wondering if this division and stressing of the words would be OK. Unfortunately I have to break up some diphthongs. ´ indicates stress, and when on a diphthong it means that it is stressed and broken up. ^ on a diphthong means that it's stressed but not broken up. Anyway, here's what I got:
Sísältää tárkasti válikoítuja
âineita jóiden tíedetää´n
ólevan héllävaráisia
íhoa kó-ohtaan.
Does this sound at least OK, it doesn't have to be perfect but does it sound OK to you native Finnish speakers?
I also wonder if I have to be very careful pronouncing the length of the vowels and consonants correctly when singing. Do I?
Thanks for all your help.
