I have never written a line of code before this website. I started this because i feel there is a lack of practical resources for Finnish and Finno-Ugric languages, particularly the colloquial and spoken forms, which is what you need if you're travelling to Finland, or want to be fluent. The long-term goal is to turn this into a proper space for documenting and sharing these languages and dialects.
Finnish is genuinely unlike most other languages. It's strange and difficult,but it's worth the effort. This site is my attempt to make practising it a little more enjoyable.
It's still a work in progress and probably always will be. I'm planning to add more grammar material, expand the vocabulary lists, and eventually make a proper mobile version.

This started as a coding experiment, so you may run into bugs. If something breaks, or you think it shouldn't do what it's doing, let me know through the contact page and I'll look into it.
