re: Learn Finnish or Welsh?

If you want a Nordic language, Learn Norwegian Bokmål. You'll get Danish for free, and you'll be able to understand a lot of Swedish and some Icelandic. You also have a head start on West Germanic languages like German & Dutch.
I have Finnish friends and the language is a nightmare, avoid unless you're a Finn or really want to live there. Even then, they will speak to you in English (if you can even get them to speak since they are anti-social
). The best language to learn is the one YOU are most interested in though. What do YOU want to invest hundreds to thousands of hours in?

Norwegian is definitely on my list. I've tried to learn Icelandic but materials were severely limited and it was hard to find native speakers (even on YouTube) to listen to.
What did your Finnish friends say was the most difficult aspect of learning the language?
