Reader Reviews:
Worth having but don't trust it too much... (3/3 people found this helpful)
I'm in two minds about this book - while it is very comprehensive and covers virtually every situation you'll encounter if does suffer from the fact that often things are hard to find. Eg: asking for a receipt from a taxi driver involves firstly finding the work receipt somewhere (and guessing the Finnish suffixes) and then finding the word for "I would like..."
Also I found that the pronounciation guide was a little strange in places. Most of the Finns I talked to queried the pronounciation in the book but understood fairly well what I was trying to say.
