ABSTRACT
Finnish is pronounced phonetically. The main stress is always on the first syllable. Each vowel in a Finnish diphthong is pronounced the same way as when it is a single vowel. The consonants p, t, k are always unaspirated.
Finnish i is like the i in “sit”
e is like the e in “set”
u is like the u in “pull”
o is like the o in “hot”
a is like the a in “father”
j is like the y in “yes”
Thus, the author's name is pronounced “Woolyocky.”
