languages again

Oh i love grammar.


 In English: I have( to have) a book

 Italiano: (Io) ho (avere) un libro

Svenska: Jag har (att ha) en bok.

Deutsch: Ich habe (zu haben) ein Buch.

Suomeksi:  Minulla on (olla= to be) kirja= the subject " Minulla" is the case adessiivi and nominativ

is Minä=I and the verb on=is in English and book is just " kirja" in finnish.


In the finnish language we do not use the verb "to have", the verb "to have" is translated in finnish     

"to possess", so in finnish you use the third person sing on=is of the verb to be= olla in many

situations.


Like in English yoy say: i am thirsty

In italian you say: Io ho(avere) sete       italians use the verb avere= to have

In finnish you can say: Minun on jano  Minun is genitive of Minä=I or Minun is also a possessive

pronomen in finnish Minun= my

and there you have the word on=is again


It is amazing to discover how different the grammar is in different languages and the italian grammar

is very different from English.
