I see, so since you speak Turkish and Finnish you can technically also understand most of Azerbaijani and Estonian

Azerbaijani is to Turkish what, let's say, what Spanish is to Portuguese, except the former two are a little more mutually intelligible than the latter two.

I see. Yea I heard Turks can understand around 80% of Azerbaijani. That is quite a high degree of mutual intelligibility, so technically if one learns Turkish he would already understand most of Azerbaijani and the other way around
