Finnish has fifteen cases — and for many learners, that number alone sounds terrifying. But are they really so hard?

In this episode of Nasta Suomi, we break down the Finnish case system in simple, logical steps. From everyday endings like -ssa (talossa = “in the house”) to the rare birds like abessiivi and komitatiivi, you’ll see how cases actually make Finnish more efficient, not harder. By the end, you’ll understand why cases are the secret ingredient that gives Finnish its unique power — and you’ll have a fun challenge to try at home.

I’ve created a Telegram channel called Nasta Suomi, where you can find all podcast materials in written form, ask questions, and connect with other Finnish learners:
