Negation Exercises For Finnish Grammar

Negation in Finnish grammar is essential for learners to understand as it allows them to express negative statements, opinions, and questions. The primary way to form negation in Finnish is by using the negative verb “ei” in combination with the main verb in its basic, uninflected form. It is important to know that the conjugation of the negative verb “ei” changes according to the subject pronoun, resulting in different forms for different subjects. In this exercise, you will practice using the negation verb “ei” by filling in the blanks in the sentences provided. Remember to pay attention to the subject pronoun and choose the correct form of negation. Good luck!
