There's some more interesting finnish words/phares... Though most of those are not written language but more old spoken language. Still funny though. Looks very simple and sensible doesn't it... My favorite is the "kokko" thing because that really is a sentence...
* Älä rääkkää kääkkää! No ehä mää rääkkääkkää. (Don't torture that old bird! But I'm not torturing!)
* Kokko, kokoo koko kokko kokoon! Koko kokkoko? Koko kokko. (Kokko, collect the whole balefire up! The whole balefire? The whole balefire.)
* Köyliöläinen yötyöläinen. (Night-shift worker from Köyliö.)
* Alavilla mailla hallanvaara. (Frost danger on low lands.)
* Vesihiisi sihisi hississä. (Water pixie hissed in the elevator.)
* Riiuuyöaie. (A slightly dated expression for an intention to hit a woman for night. The word with the most vowels on the trot in the world.)
* "Tule varovasti", sanoi tuleva rovasti. ("Come carefully" said the dean.)
* Onkiva rovasti on kiva rovasti koska onki varovasti. (Fishing dean is a nice dean because he fished carefully.)
* Yksikseskös itkeskelet, itsekseskös yskiskelet? (Are you crying alone, coughing by yourself?)
* Vahva talous-, vero- ja työllisyysstrategia sekä yhteiskunnallista tasa-arvoa ajava ja sosiaalista eheyttä edistävä uudistuspolitiikka ovat 2000-luvun alun ilmentymä sille poliittiselle yhteistyön perinteelle, jolla maatamme on menneinä vuosikymmeninä kehitetty. (A strong economic, tax and employment strategy, and reform policies which foster societal equality and social integrity, are a beginning-of-the-21st-century expression of the tradition of political co-operation that has been the foundation of our country's development during the past decades)
* Ääkköset eivät ole ongelma. (Umlauts are not a problem.)
* Älä lyö, ääliö! Ööliä läikkyy. (Don't hit, you moron! The beer is splashing.)
* Kolmivaihekilowattituntimittari (three-phased kWh counter)
* Epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydelläänsäkäänköhänkään (untranslatable I wonder if even with his, her or it's ability not to disorganize things.)
*Kumarreksituteskenteleentuvaisehkollaismaisekkuudellisenneskenteluttelemattomammuuksissansakkaankopahan (45th longest word in Finland. The translation is in progress. It is expected to be finished by the year 2145.)
Funny and weird language we have.. Though it is a highly versatile when you master it because you can conjugate every word so there's no need for article words. (Well there are some exceptions but almost all )

This Welsh town on the island of Anglesey is only known due to the fact that it has a very long name, and is the longest railway station name in Britain, and probably the longest domain name in the world.
The name translates as 'St Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio of the red cave'.
