Foreign LanguagesEstonian
Estonian is a Finno-Ugric language spoken primarily in Estonia. It is closely related to Finnish and distantly related to Hungarian. Estonian has a complex system of 14 grammatical cases and a wide range of vowels, including nasal vowels. The language has been influenced by German, Swedish, and Russian due to Estonia's history of being ruled by foreign powers. Estonian uses the Latin script with some diacritics, including the letters õ, ä, ö, ü.
