Suomipassi - Finnish Pass

University of Turku

About this app

Suomipassi extends language learning beyond the classroom. Are you a newly arrived exchange student eager to learn Finnish? A tourist wanting to know the basic phrases for shopping? Have you lived in Finland longer but still find it hard to use Finnish in daily life?

With Suomipassi, you will learn the most important phrases needed in everyday situations, such as market places, grocery stores, restaurants, and libraries, or when asking for help or directions. In addition, you will learn basic vocabulary, such as numbers and food vocabulary. Does it feel difficult to pronounce Finnish? No worries - you can listen to the phrases and practice your pronunciation. The audio materials are in spoken language, so you will learn to understand and pronounce authentic everyday language better.

Why call it the Finnish Pass? You can collect stamps for speaking Finnish and see your progress on a map and in a learning diary. The application is multilingual, translated into English, Swedish, Russian, German, Spanish, Chinese, French, Italian, and Arabic. So download the app, practice the phrases, and impress Finns by speaking Finnish in everyday situations!

Are you a student or a teacher in a Finnish course? This app can be used as part of Finnish language courses.
