Demonstrative Pronouns Exercises For Finnish Grammar

Guide to grammar exercises for language acquisitionย 

Demonstrative pronouns in Finnish grammar are used to point out or indicate specific people, places, or things. These pronouns are similar to “this,” “that,” “these,” and “those” in English. In Finnish, there are two groups of demonstrative pronouns, based on proximity to the speaker: tรคmรค (this) and tuo (that). Finnish demonstrative pronouns agree with the noun they refer to in number and case. Learning and practicing Finnish demonstrative pronouns will help you communicate more effectively when referring to particular objects or persons.
