Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This introductory guide is intended for use by anyone who wants to understand the fundamentals of Finnish grammar and acquire basic communicative skills. "Beginner's Finnish provides users with the linguistic tools to immediate communication on an elementary level, whether one's goals are travel, business, or further study of the language. Each lesson consists of a dialogue that gives a taste of everyday Finnish conversation and life in Finland, vocabulary that introduces basic words, idioms that present commonly used phrases, grammar that explains the structures of the language and how to use them, and exercises to test understanding and active language skills.

Book News Annotation:

More thorough than a traveler's language tutorial, but not quite a textbook, this introduction includes 12 chapters covering basic vocabulary and grammar and provides exercises designed to help readers begin to communicate at an elementary level. Each chapter also includes a dialogue which incorporates the grammar lessons as well as covering some necessary informal language. The dedicated reader will have mastered 600 Finnish words at the end of the lessons.
