For the love of translation

In case you have not seen it, Alajärven Lukio has posted pictures from my friends' graduation on
Saturday. One of those pictures is of me. The Facebook translated version is as follows:

Surprise! The American Emma I held a speech to the students of their classmates. Two years ago, he spent an exchange student in the high school of the lower lake, and went off course with the students who were passed on Saturday. Emma's visit to the lake was a surprise to the party. Emma's speech also dealt with surprises that fit her exchange student bed a lot. As a surprise to the party people, the fact that Emma's Finnish language has become even more advanced in the last few years. At The University of university of University, he is studying the Finnish language and culture.




Now, for those of you that don't speak Finnish, which is most of you, here is a better translation of what the Facebook post says:

Surprise! American Emma Mulhern gave a speech to the graduates, her former classmates. She spent a year abroad as an exchange student at Alajärven Lukio two years ago and took classes with the newly graduated class. Emma's visit to Alajärvi remained a secret until graduation day. Emma's speech also talked about surprises, which she experienced many of during her exchange year. It was a surprise for those attending how Emma's Finnish language abilities had improved even more during the past two years. She is majoring in International Business and minorning in Finnish at the University of Minnesota.
