Hei kaikki!
I made a YouTube video in slightly broken Finnish. Can you guys understand what I’m saying? And have you got any tips for me to improve my Finnish language skills?

Your pronunciation very clear only thing I can point that needs bit more work is the cases. You sometimes used the basic case of a word and did not change it to fit the surrounding sentence. Lucky for you it’s pretty clear cut almost no exceptions. Only really foreign loans are exempt. here is a short recap: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP8U7azoW1o&ab_channel=JohannaJauho](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP8U7azoW1o&ab_channel=JohannaJauho)
Other than that just listen and speak and it will get better.
Your pronunciation is good but intonation sounds sluggish like with someone who has mental difficulties, so there is still some work left or actually it’s not the intonation as much now that i’ve listened a few times it’s the nominative forms and kirjakieli mixed in with spoken language constructs peppered in that makes the effect.
Great work!! Sure it’s broken here and there but I can totally understand you. Your clear pronunciation makes it easy to follow even thought it’s not fluent so no worries.
Only part that I’m not sure what you are saying is between 0:52 and 1:02 but it’s only ten seconds in a four minute video haha.
Anyways good job and keep going!
