Daniel Tammet has the capability to visualize each number up to 10,000 with its own unique shape and feel. He can "see" results of calculations as landscapes, and he can "sense" whether a number is prime or composite. He has described his visual image of 289 as particularly ugly, 333 as particularly attractive, and pi as beautiful. Tammet not only verbally describes these visions, but also creates artwork, particularly watercolor paintings, such as his painting of Pi.
Tammet speaks a variety of languages including English, French, Finnish, German, Spanish, Lithuanian, Romanian, Estonian, Icelandic, Welsh and Esperanto. He particularly likes Estonian, because it is rich in vowels. Tammet is creating a new language called Mänti. Mänti has many features related to Finnish and Estonian, both of which are Finno-ugric languages. Some sources credit Tammet as creating the Uusisuom and Lapsi languages as well.
Tammet is capable of learning new languages very quickly. To prove this for the Channel Five documentary, Tammet was challenged to learn Icelandic in one week. Seven days later he appeared on Icelandic television conversing in Icelandic, with his Icelandic language instructor saying it was "not human."

| I just read some time ago that finish is similar to latin by pronounciation or something, not in words or grammar. In the article they said that Finish people wouldn't have as much of a dificult to learn the promouciation, other than that I know nothing more about this. Oh, and it said also that there is over 3000 people that use latin in daily conversation in finland. I don't know if that is correct. |

| Not in word wise but in pronounciation and the tact in which it is spoken, i think |

| Finnish similar to Latin!!! What? Finnish is an Uralic language, as Latin is Indoeuropean. Finnish is totally different from other European languages... Estonian, Hungarian, Sami languages and Finnish are actually related to languages that are spoken in Siberia. |
