Finnish and English: Similarities and Differences

Despite both being used internationally and having global importance, Finnish and English are linguistically distinct, representing two separate language families. English is a Germanic language in the Indo-European family, while Finnish is a Uralic language, making it structurally and lexically different from English.

  • Grammar: Finnish has a complex system of 15 grammatical cases, agglutinative structures, and no grammatical gender. English, in contrast, uses a fixed word order, plural and possessive forms, and auxiliary verbs to indicate tense.
  • Phonetics: Finnish pronunciation is phonetic—words are pronounced as spelled, while English contains many silent letters and irregular pronunciations.
  • Vocabulary: Finnish vocabulary has few cognates with English, with most shared words arising from modern loanwords.
  • Sentence Structure: Finnish word order is flexible, while English relies on Subject-Verb-Object order.
  • Translation Challenges: Finnish's use of compound words and extensive inflection can make word-for-word translation difficult. High context sensitivity is needed to produce natural English equivalents and vice versa.

Special Aspects of Finnish-English Translation

  • Maintaining meaning across different grammatical systems (cases vs. prepositions).
  • Translating idioms and set expressions, many of which do not have direct equivalents.
  • Accounting for cultural references embedded in common phrases.
  • Recognizing false friends and context-dependent terminology.
  • Ensuring stylistic and register appropriateness for both formal and informal contexts.
