- Finnish belongs to the Finnic branch of the Finno-Ugric family of languages.
- Its closest relative is Estonian; Hungarian is a distant cousin.
- It is spoken by approximately 5.2 million people, mostly in Finland, and by some in Sweden and Russia as well.
- There are three varieties of standard Finnish which are spoken throughout the country:
- kirjakieli ("book language") - used in official documents, official speeches and the daily news,
- yleiskieli - the standard language used in schools; it is formal and correct, though more relaxed than the "book language," and
- puhekieli ("spoken language") - more casual variety used in everyday conversation, which changes frequently.
This course teaches the Finnish language, yleiskieli.
