A sonnet, one translated into a Finno-Ugric language (8)
I believe the answer is:
estonian
'a finno-ugric language' is the definition.
'estonian' can be an answer for 'language' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'a finno-ugric' bit.
'a sonnet one translated' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'translated' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'sonnet'+'i'='asonneti'
'asonneti' with letters rearranged gives 'ESTONIAN'.
'into' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for estonian that I've seen before include "E. European" , "Person from Tallinn, say." , "Native of a Baltic republic" , "Eastern Europe" , "Eg, native of Tallinn" .)
