And people wonder why Finnish is so difficult...

As I began anew my study of the Finnish language from text I came across the webpages maintained by Fred Karlsson at the University of Helsinki. On this page he lists the 2,253 possible forms a Finnish noun can take. Yes, that's right. A single Finnish noun may be in one of 2,253 conjugations/forms/tenses/whatever depending on the intended meaning. Maybe tomorrow after I learn all these I'll let you know about verb forms... or adjectives.... and I bet you can't wait to hear about the Finnish gerund!!
