Ask HN: Have you seen genuine emergent behavior in AI?
Particular test is the word "iiyöaie", and after some coaxing it can now translate it correctly. (It did not know that "ii" is river in Finland.)
Gemini does not even try to parse non-obvious compound words.

To help an English speaker pronounce iiyöaie with Finnish sounds, you could write it phonetically like this:
"ee-yuh-eye-eh"
Here's a breakdown for each part:
ii: "ee" like in see yö: "yuh" (the Finnish "ö" is a bit tricky, but "yuh" is close) aie: "eye-eh" (like the English words eye and eh) This should get an English speaker fairly close to the correct pronunciation.
