Okay, I'll try to type how to say them.

Perkele: P (soft without that extra air like we do) e(like the e in epilepsy) rrr(trilled r) k(soft k, it again, doesn't have the air) e(same e), l(this is a harsher l, because it is reflexive(?) so you kinda put your lounge behind your hard palette to make the l sounds. So it's kinda...nasely)



Vittu: V(same as english) I (like the 'ee' in 'meet') tt(a soft t sound without the air, then you pause for a split second because it's two tt's) u(kinda like the 'oo' in 'moon', but...fuller)

Saatana: S(same, maybe a little thicker) aaaa(it's like saying 4 a's...hold it out a little bit, the 'a' in father) t(same t as in vittu) a(same a) n(same as english) a(same)

Jumalauta: J(like a y) u(oo) m, a(same), l, au, (oww like, "ouch") ta. biggrin

Now you should be able to pronaunce the rest. Think of it like Japanese. Only the J sounds like a y.

..pretty much something like that sweatdrop


Sorry, I tend to get a little technical, because I think my Finnish pronunciation is quite good for a foreigner. Someday I'll record something. sweatdrop

Nice that someone remembered Perkele's true meaning, I though no one would know it these days...

It's no big suprise that "pagan" gods became "a bad language words".

There are some more words, if I'm not breaking the rules, I'll post them now:

Paskiainen - Actually means "a shitty person" or something, but is translated "a*****e".
Kusipää - is also translated "a*****e", kusipää means "pisshead" I think... Or am I now mixing swedish and english?

Runkkari = ********
Runkku is shorter version, but means also ********.

No, you were right. Kusipää means "pisshead".
