Finnish is natively known as Suomi and belongs to the Uralic, Finnic language family.
There are approximately 5.8 million native speakers worldwide.
Finnish is one of the two official languages of Finland (alongside Swedish) and is one of the few non-Indo-European languages in the European Union.
Finnish has 15 grammatical cases, extensive agglutination (words built by adding suffixes), and vowel harmony, making it notably different from most European languages.
The longest Finnish word in everyday use is often cited as epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydellänsäkäänköhän, demonstrating the language's agglutinative nature.
Finnish is remarkably phonetic; words are pronounced exactly as they are written, with each letter having a single consistent sound.
The Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, compiled by Elias Lonnrot in 1835, was a major inspiration for J.R.R. Tolkien in creating his Elvish languages.
Finnish migration to Australia has been modest, with small communities established since the gold rush era and post-World War II. The Finnish-born population numbers around 5,000, with communities in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. Finnish clubs and saunas serve as social gathering points, and the community celebrates Finnish traditions such as Midsummer (Juhannus).
About New York
New York City is home to more than 3.2 million residents born outside the United States, the largest foreign-born population of any city in the world. If New York City were a country, it would have the 12th highest GDP in the world. New York City traces its origins to a trading post founded by colonists of the Dutch Republic in 1624. The city and its surroundings came under English control in 1664 and were renamed New York after King Charles II of England granted the lands to his brother, the Duke of York.
In the 21st century, New York has emerged as a global node of creativity and entrepreneurship, social tolerance, and environmental sustainability, and as a symbol of freedom and cultural diversity.
