Is the language a barrier to learn or to work in a foreign country? Yes, it is, but it doesn\u2019t mean that it would be a problem. Communication between people with a different language is only difficult if you don\u2019t try to learn and to understand. Since I came here, I hear every day so many languages that I don\u2019t understand, but it isn\u2019t a matter!<\/p>\n
It is truth that at the beginning, everything is a mess, because it is weird to listen a language and not understand it, and with Finnish, it happens every day! Finnish is a very difficult but very logical language; it is so different if you compare it with languages like English or French. But foreign people in Finland have an advantage so big: everybody knows English, included elderly and children! So, it is so easy speak with Finnish people.<\/p>\n
But English is not always a solution to resolve the language barrier. In Daisy Ladies there are women from different countries, like Iran, Irak and Somalia, and a few of them don\u2019t speak English, so it is a mess! But as I said before, if you want to communicate, it is not a problem. Body language is so similar around the world, and although they speak between them in Arabic or Finnish, someone that speak English can translate the most important things and help you in the conversation.<\/p>\n
As a summary, I\u2019m always in an atmosphere where I don\u2019t understand the language that people use, but it isn\u2019t uncomfortable or weird. We must understand that everybody is more comfortable speaking in their own language, so if we arrive to a foreign country, we have to do an effort to learn and participate actively in the conversation and communication. Now, I understand some words in Finnish and Arabic!<\/p>\n
