Welcome to the sixth Finnish lesson about numbers. This time we will learn about cardinal and ordinal numbers, followed by grammar rules, then animal names, finally a conversation in Finnish to help you practice your daily phrases.
Finnish cardinal numbers refer to the counting numbers, because they show quantity. For example: I speak two languages. Ordinal numbers on the other hand tell the order of things and their rank: my first language is Finnish. The examples below use numbers in different ways and places to demonstrate how they behave in a sentence.
We're not done yet! The following is a list of animals.
cow lehmä |
goat vuohi |
donkey aasi |
horse hevonen |
dog koira |
cat kissa |
mouse hiiri |
bird lintu |
Now we finally reach the last part, the practice of the daily conversations. These phrases are used to get to know new people, and break the ice.
