Use verbs in 'puhekieli' like a real Finn

The Finnish Verb Handbook: Conquer Colloquial Conjugations is your cheat sheet for the most common Finnish verbs in the spoken language, puhekieli.

The handbook will help you understand normal spoken Finnish and use verbs correctly when you speak Finnish.

Are you often searching the right conjugation for the most basic verbs in Finnish?

You want to say something important, but you just can't remember how to say that verb in the negative past perfect!
So you panic and switch to English.

Or you're listening to your Finnish friend's story about their weekend, and you just can't keep up with all the puhekieli forms of the verbs.

And the worst thing is...

When you decide to learn the most common verb conjugations in the spoken language, you realise that you can't find them by Googling (yep, I've tried)!

But wouldn't it be great to have those structures imprinted in your brain for when you need them?

THIS WOULD ENABLE YOU TO:

Stop second-guessing

You will understand your Finnish friends directly, without having to guess what the corresponding kirjakieli version is.

Speak with ease

No more searching for the right conjugation - it comes out automatically and naturally!

Sound like a real Finn

Even verb conjugations have their puhekieli versions - and if you want to sound like a Finn, you have to use them!

Introducing...

The Finnish Verb Handbook: Conquer Colloquial Conjugations

This first-of-a-kind handbook includes 10 most important Finnish verbs conjugated in:

  • the main tenses – present, imperfect, perfect, past perfect, conditional and past conditional

  • all personas – me, you, he/she, we, you pl. and they

  • negative and positive

  • all of this in interrogative clauses!

That's 1440 verb conjugations in total.

As you might know, I’m not a big fan of memorising vocabulary lists by heart – assimilating them with the natural method is much more efficient.

But I noticed that spending some time for studying the most common verb conjugations in French, while consuming material that used those structures, really helped me internalise them and make their use automatic.

And when you get these verbs imprinted in your brain, speaking becomes sooooo much easier! I mean how many times do we use the phrase “I would have wanted” in a day??

(And if you search that on Google Translate, you get the kirjakieli version – which is great if you want to give out the impression of an 80-year-old professor 😉 just kidding ok!)

Having that structure readily available for when you need it will save you from stumbling with your words with such a basic sentence.

The Finnish Verb Handbook

is the perfect companion for Finnish learners who already understand some Finnish but struggle forming the puhekieli versions of the most common verbs – which makes speaking a pain in the 🍑.

YOU MIGHT THINK:

“Umm boring, I can surely find this online”.


WELL, NO YOU CAN'T, BECAUSE THESE VERBS ARE CONJUGATED IN PUHEKIELI, THE COLLOQUIAL FINNISH WE USE EVERY DAY.
