Speaking Finnish with Lauri Markkanen

Lauri Markkanen tests the Finnish of his teammates. Let's just say, Lauri makes it seem a lot easier than it is.

—ADD US ON:

This having Greek background music is the most American thing ever

[subrosa]

Actually Finnish language is one of the rare ones, which is pronounced exatly like wrote. That is why Finland has no word-competition. When Finnish children learn to read they learn to pronounce  immediatly.

Next watch lauri markkanen teach other bulls how to actually play basketball

[chitownking]

I love Kris Dunn's reaction to Lauri pronouncing it haha

[kmisi]

but why did you put greek music on the video?

[paqman]

Finnish skit. Greek background music. SMFH.

[nickolaos]

When you mess up with the flags and you select Greek music instead of Finnish

[iliketrainspwned]

Fun fact: Saippuakivikauppias holds the record for the longest palindrome in any language. If you spell it backwards, it's still the same word!

[shivgandhi]

Lmao the bulls drafted him just so they could do this skit

[onnitavasti]

As a Finnish person these type of videos are the best entertainment you can get

[bunker]

I love the finnish language. It has a nice phonetics, and i love the land and the people too.

[nishantkkhandelwal]

Robin Lopez speaking finnish looks like a guy from the stone age xD 0:54

[infiltrr]

That doesn't say "airplane mechanic trainee". It's more like "Airplane jet turbine motor mechanic under-officer trainee".

[olsaintlit]

Tell me why Robin Lopez sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger reading those Finnish words?

[mx.]

90% of the comments : "the greek music on the background" 10% of the comments : "SUOMI PERKELE"

[NtheGaming]

Lauri sounds like that Google Translate guy LOL

[pacothehunter]

He is from Finland not Greece dont play Greek music in the background that's just silly

[accountnolongerinuse]

As a Swedish person living in Finland, learning Finnish is pain. I wish I could speak Finnish but I struggle real hard with it so does many other Swedish people in Finland. If any of y'all think Finnish is easy, think again.

I've been married to my 100% Finnish-background U.S. born wife since 1983. I've heard Finnish spoken so many times and yet I can only understand the most basic of words - those need to be explained to me. In my experience, trying to learn Finnish is about as easy as trying to catch a fast moving greased piggy only funnier.

This reminds me big shaq free style on mans no hot
