"Researchers have already cast much darkness on the subject, and if they continue their investigations, we shall soon know nothing at all about it."
-Mark Twain
In general it's supposed to be low on consonants, I think.
However, the thing that always strikes me, hearing it spoken, is all those k's.
Yksi, kaksi, kolme, neljä, viisi, kuusi, seitsemän, kahdeksan, yhdeksän,
kymmenen, yksitoista, kaksitoista, you know?
And all those cases (~15 ) are evil too, more suphixes than I can stand.
I know what you mean; I live amongst a large lot of misplaced Finns who've made several miserably failed attempts to domesticate their...nomenclature, and have only mastered the name spellings of those employed at the plant I contract with.
It's not a totally fruitless endeavor, but fucking close, for that.

This fate is worse than death. Condemned to live out existence in a vessel incapable of sustaining my true glory. How am I to function with such limitation? - Illyria
