Truthfully, I don't even know what Finnish looks like. :-p Chevraqis
was designed mainly after Japanese, Korean and Latin in grammar. There
are occasional quasi-borrowings from Korean or Japanese, none from Latin
(or Indo-European languages in general). OTOH, I noticed that Korean and
Japanese weren't in his database, though I doubt the thing would have
picked it up.
