Finnish belongs to the Uralic language family and is the closest relative to Estonian. In Finnish, we do not notice a distinction between genders – there is only one third person singular (the forms ‘she’ and ‘he’ are not used).

Why is it useful to translate from and into Finnish?
- It is a language spoken by around 5 million people.
- It is the official language in Finland (alongside Swedish) and one of the official languages of the European Union.
- Currently, the number of Poles in Finland is estimated to be around 3,000. In 2014, Finnish authorities recorded 735 registrations of Polish citizens who plan a long-term stay in the country. Moreover, around 2-3 thousand Poles come to Finland every year to take up short-term jobs or participate in student exchange programmes. Sworn translations into Finnish are required for various formalities (e.g. applying for a job or obtaining a residence permit).
