    Regarding difference in vowel length… Use a machine translator of your choice and translate these two phrases from Finnish to your mother tongue:

    • Tapaan sinut.
    • Tapan sinut.

    Safe travels!

      Haha. Nice one.

      Especially because getting the vowels right is usually pretty challenging to like, English speakers.
