Heikki: Haluaisin taas lumilautailemaan. Voisimme varata taas saman lomamökin Lapista, kuin viime vuonna. Aino: Hmm, minun mielestäni se viime vuoden paikka oli hiukan tylsä. Haluaisin mieluummin kylpylään. Heikki: Minä en niin välitä uimisesta talvilomalla... Minusta talvella pitäisi nauttia lumesta! Aino: No, onhan se toki niinkin. Voisimme silti etsiä paikan, missä voimme sekä lautailla, että käydä kylpylässä. Heikki: Joo, mikä ettei. ----Formal English---- Aino: Heikki, the skiing holiday is approaching. Where should we go? Heikki: I would like to go snowboarding again. We could reserve the same cabin in Lapland as last year. Aino: Hmm, I think the place last year was a little bit boring. I would rather go to a spa. Heikki: I don't care for swimming that much during winter vacation... In my opinion you're supposed to enjoy snow during winter! Aino: Well, sure, that too. We could still search for a place where we can snowboard and go to a spa. Heikki: Yeah, why not. --------------------------- Learn Finnish with FinnishPod101!

Kylmältä näyttää, vai mitä Pekka? Pekka: Kyllä vain. Viikonloppua vietetään erittäin talvisessa säässä. Pekka: Syynä pakkaseen on korkeapaine, joka on ulottunut Siperiasta asti meille. Pekka: Pakkaslukemat liikkuvat 20-30 asteen välillä koko maassa. Pekka: Yötä kohden pakkanen kiristyy, ja Lapissa 40 pakkasastetta voi mennä rikki. Pekka: Pakkasella pysytään myös ensi viikolla, joskin talvi hellittää otettaan hieman loppuviikolla. Kuuluttaja: Selvä, kiitos Pekka! Villapaidat siis esiin! ----Formal English---- Announcer: And now we'll hear the weather forecast for the weekend. Looks cold, or what, Pekka? Pekka: Yes, indeed. The weekend will be very wintry weather. Pekka: The reason for the freezing weather is the high air pressure, which has extended all the way from Siberia to us. Pekka: The freezing temperatures will move between -20 and -30 degrees throughout the whole country. Pekka: Towards the night the frost will be tightening, and in Lapland -40 degrees might be seen. Pekka: The freezing weather will continue on next week, although winter will lose its grip slightly towards the end of the week. Announcer: Okay, thank you, Pekka! So bring out the sweaters! --------------------------- Learn Finnish with FinnishPod101! Don't forget to stop by FinnishPod101.com for more great Finnish Language Learning Resources!
