Why Learn Finnish?
Part of the Finnic branch of the Uralic language of Northern Asia and Europe, Finnish is one of the two official languages of Finland (the other is Swedish). Finnish is also spoken in isolated pockets of Sweden, Norway, and Russia, especially in regions with significant ethnic Finnish populations. Of Finland’s approximately 5 million speakers, 4.75 million are in Finland, over 200,000 in Sweden, 8,000 in Norway, nearly 9,000 in the Russian Republic of Karelia, and over 25,000 in the United States. Aside from Finland proper, Finnish is also an official language of the European Union and the Nordic Council.

Speak Finnish with Confidence. Read like a Native.
Through his research, Dr. Pimsleur found that traditional teaching methods like memorizing vocabulary, conjugating verbs, and practicing grammar actually SLOW DOWN your ability to learn Finnish. He called them the kiss of total silence because they made it nearly impossible to speak the Finnish language. It's the reason learning a language feels so difficult, when it should feel totally natural.
It makes sense when you think about it. Have you ever seen a toddler memorizing vocabulary lists? Or picking out parts of speech in a sentence diagram? Of course not. Children learn language the way we were meant to ‐ by listening. That's because we are hardwired to remember sounds and store them in our memory automatically.
It's the same way you pick up a song on the radio. You don't have to study the lyrics or understand musical notes and chords to remember a song. Chances are, if you hear a song once you can sing along the next time you hear it.
