Content of the Finnish pronunciation workshop
- The vowels y,ö and ä
- Finnish h (a little different depending on the other sounds around it)
- Finnish l (surprisingly tricky)
- The ŋ sound (hiding in nk and ng!)
- No aspiration! (k, p, and t are just k, p and t.)
- Duration (long and short vowels and consonants)
- Päivi and I will first model the pronunciation and explain how it's done, and then the students can practice with their microphones off. After that, you can ask questions, and then we'll move on to the next topic.
- The example sentences will be from the easy Finnish novels Yösyöttö, Juurihoito and Ei kertonut katuvansa.
- We will speak Finnish, but the slides are in Finnish and in English.
- If you want, you can be completely silent and anonymous during the workshop, but you can also have your camera and microphone on and participate in the conversation.
- Leave a comment, if there is something you want to ask about the workshop!
- Listen to us talking about the webinar
