Trainee's Guide 2002 IAESTE LC Helsinki The Finnish language Finnish is not related to any major languages other than Estonian, and more distantly, Hungarian. It has also been said to be a very difficult language to learn... letter pronunciation as in... a e g i j o r u y f a ther s e t g et f i t y ellow f o r (sharp, like in Spanish) b o ok h a t (like in German; nearest English equivalent 't u rn' or 'h e r') only appear in words of foreign origin, and are usually pronounced like 's/k','k','v','ks','ts','o'. All other letters are as you would expect in the English language. k,p,t tend to be softer, though (without aspiration). But don't worry, most people in Helsinki can speak at least some English, so learning Finnish is not a requirement for survival. Often you may also be able to guess the meaning of street signs, etc., because they are usually written in both Finnish and Swedish (which is related to English). Still, you might want to learn some basic Finnish, just for fun! Pronunciation of Finnish is very easy - the language is mostly "spoken the same way as it's written", meaning that one letter always corresponds to the same sound, and all letters are clearly pronounced. The stress is always on the first syllable of a word. On the right is a table showing some approximations for the sounds of different letters. One thing to watch for, though, is the difference between long and short letters, which can change meanings completely - for example

72. The Karelians The condition of literature in Finnish at present is rather disturbing. In thefirst place, many writers using the finnish language have left for Finland. http://www.suri.ee/inf/karelen.html

The Karelians A. Mishin Chairman of the Board, Writers’ Union of the Karelian Republic Today, Karelians, Vepsians and Finns make up a mere 11 per cent of the population in Karelia. However, there was a time (early twenties) when the share of Karelians and Vepsians was 43 and 3,2 per cent, respectively. Finns are not the native people to this area. During the 1920s and 1930s, Finns migrated to Karelia from Finland, America and Canada; people of Finno-Ugrian origin arrived from the Leningrad Region as well. Many of them were subject to repression in 1937 and 1938. In 1939, there were only eight thousand Finns in Karelia. The population increased, though, greatly in the late forties. Deprived of opportunity to return to their native home – the Leningrad Region, about 20 thousand Ingrian Finns moved to Karelia at the permission of authorities in 1949. The Karelian literature during the Soviet regime was mostly Russian and Finnish. Attempts to create the Karelian and Vepsian written language failed. It was not allowed to teach in the Vepsian language. On the other hand, neither of the three groups of Karelian nation (north Karelians, Livviks and Ludiks) accepted the Karelian language that was combined artificially from three dialects. The majority of Karelian writers continued to use the Finnish literary language which is similar to the northern dialect of Karelian. Voluminous literature published in Finnish was known very well in the former Soviet Union. Names of J. Virtanen, L. Helo (Finns), N. Jakkola, A. Timonen, J. Rugojev and P. Perttu (Karelians) gained great recognition in the country.

76. The Finnish Language Back to Index. The finnish language. We suggest that our friends at the DefenseLanguage School add Finnish to the list of candidates for logical spelling. http://www.stanford.edu/group/wais/language_finnishlang21102.html

Back to Index The Finnish language Aldo da Rosa, Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford, surprised me for praising the logical spelling of Finnish, giving a strange reason. He says: "When my children were babies, they spoke Finnish (in addition to Portuguese and English) although I did not. Nevertheless, every night I read them Finnish stories without understanding what I was saying. They understood and enjoyed them. This was possible because of the rigid spelling rules of the language and the extremely simple rule for stressing syllables in a word: always stress the initial syllable. [Apparently not: "Stress generally falls on the first or last syllable" My guess is that the children loved the sound of papa's voice. RH]. I asked Also how he became involved with Finnish: "The above occurred before I ever went to Finland (later, I taught, for a short time, in Otaniemi, a school whose undergraduate electrical engineering curriculum compares, in my opinion, favorable with Stanford's. Otaniemi is a few kilometers from Helsinki.) The reason for my children speaking Finnish is that this is Aili's (my wife) first language". My comment: Otaniemi Technical University, near Espoo, northwest of Helsinki, is spectacular. Finnish architecture is world-famous. The focal point of the university is the auditorium building with two large halls (also intended for congresses). Its staircase-like ascending rows of windows suggest from the outside an amphitheater. All class rooms are in adjacent buildings grouped about small internal courts, where there are lecture-rooms, laboratories and professors' offices. The university is divided into three principal departments: general, geodetic and architectural. There is, as at Stanford, an adjacent science park. Finland is technically advanced, especially in the field of electronics.
