Hi, I understand that Malcolm is currently digitising the Finnish texts.

Is there any update on progress? As I'm in Australia, I'm not sure what I can do to help - certainly I've never found any FSI material in any library here, public or university - but I'm happy to make a donation if will assist.

I would also like to know how the Finnish texts are coming along and when I could expect them to be done?

I am anxious to start learning and speaking Finnish with my wife who is from Finland.

I really appreciate all of the hard work you are doing and would love to help in any way I can.

Keep up the good work!

I posted this in another forum here, but here it is again:

This may not be ideal but it seems to be the cheapest way to get the Finnish text for yourself. There's a site that sells some of the textbooks of FSI courses as downloads at $25 each. The textbook for FSI Conversational Finnish is available but not the workbook.

Question  Does anyone know the current status of the finnish texts?   Is there someone working on them?
 
Something that may be of interest to people interested in Finnish is this link.

It has the audio files for A bASIC cOURSE in Finnish.  No text, unfortunately.
