Let it snow.

Japanese for snowflake is 雪片. It's easy to figure out when you know that 雪 is snow and 片 is piece. The same logic uses in English and Karelian. In all three languages it is a kind of tiny piece of snow. If you can read this text, you already know what is snowflake.

In Karelian language snowflake has three or four different words. We're pretty good concerning snow ;) For you i gave the one from dictionary. But there is also 'jiätiähti' which is absolutely impossible to pronounce correctly if you're not native.
