Learning a little survival Finnish @ FinnFest ’08 in Duluth, MN
Originally uploaded by frozenreindeer

We started out the Finnish survival workshop talking about
pronounciation. Here is a page from our Finnish manual. Great
refresher to get me back into Finnish thinking and speaking!

I pulled this from the Helsingin Sanomat International Edition. Check it out on the Learn Finnish page. Some key words to remember if traveling to Finland:

(credit for this post goes to the Helsingin Sanomat)

Anteeksi = Sorry / Excuse me

En puhu suomea. = I don’t speak Finnish

Hauska tavata! = Nice to meet you!

Hyvää huomenta! = Good morning!

Hyvää iltaa! = Good evening!

Hyvää päivää! = Good afternoon!

Iso tuoppi! = Could I have a pint of beer, please!

Kiitos! = Thank you!
