Hi I'm tossu from Finland and I'm new member of GOF. I'm not good in English, so I write short clauses. Does anybody here speaks Finnish as first language?

Welcome to the forum.  Your English does seem good.   If you prefer writing in short sentences that is ok.  You may find you prefer doing that.   :goodluck & have fun here.

Hello and welcome to the GOF!  No sorry to say I don't even know 1 word in Finnish, but we do have a culturally diverse community here.  Perhaps you'll be able to find someone else who speaks Finnish here.  Well good luck with that and as I said before, welcome to the forums!  :yes

Welcome to the GoF! Don't worry about writing long sentences or using proper English... many people who speak it as their first language don't use correct grammar either!  :lol

Welcome to the GOF! We have representatives from all the Scandanavian countries, so there must be at least one other Finnish person here. Malte or one of the admins will probably know who.

Anyway, hope you enjoy your time around here! Feel free to ask if you have any questions! :wave

It's from IIX The big freeze,    beginning of The mad song.

I noticed that Standard_toaster is from Finland too.

Hey there Tossu, welcome to the GOF. Don't worry about your English, it's pretty good so far. ;)

Oh and the roman numeral 8 is spelt "VIII", not "IIX" ^^

Welcome with us tossu :)
Already you found our other Finnish member. I don't think there is a third one yet. But the GOF is a very international group indeed and many of us are no native speakers of the English language. We have members from five continents and many more countries. The Gang of Five greatly benefits from the international membership.
Please feel hearty invited to join our discussions or start threads of your own  :yes
