As you can see, Finnish is a phonetic language, which means that it is pronounced exactly as it is written. Do not be afraid of the number of syllables or the length of the words - with practice, the numbers will become easier and easier to pronounce.
Let's see some examples of how to use these numbers in sentences:
 
* Hän täyttää kaksikymmentä vuotta huomenna. (He/She turns twenty tomorrow.)
* Meillä on yhdeksäntoista oppilasta luokassa. (We have nineteen students in the classroom.)
* Seitsemäntoista kukkaa kukoistaa puutarhassani. (Seventeen flowers are blooming in my garden.)
 
== Cultural Insights ==
 
Numbers hold cultural significance in every language, and Finnish is no exception. In Finnish culture, numbers are often associated with superstitions, celebrations, and traditions.
 
The number seven (seitsemän) is considered lucky in Finnish culture. It is associated with good fortune and is often seen as a magical number. Many Finnish traditions and beliefs revolve around the number seven, such as the belief that if you pick seven different flowers and put them under your pillow on Midsummer's Eve, you will dream of your future spouse.


== Using Numbers in Sentences ==
These cultural insights add depth and richness to the language learning experience. Understanding the cultural significance of numbers can enhance your understanding of Finnish society and its traditions.


Now that you know the basic numbers, you can start using them in sentences. Below you will find some examples of how to use numbers in Finnish:
== Exercises ==


* Yksi omena, kiitos. (One apple, please.)
Let's now put our knowledge of numbers 1 to 20 in Finnish to the test. Complete the following exercises and check your answers below:
* Kahdeksanvuotias poika. (An eight-year-old boy.)
* Neljäs rivi vasemmalta. (The fourth row from the left.)
* Kaksitoista kuukautta vuodessa. (Twelve months in a year.)
* Minulla on kuusi veljeä. (I have six brothers.)
* Yhdeksänkymmentäyhdeksän prosenttia vedestä on puhdasta. (Ninety-nine percent of the water is clean.)


When using numbers in sentences, remember the word order in Finnish. The basic word order of a Finnish sentence is subject-verb-object, just like in English. However, the number comes before the noun it is describing in Finnish. For example, "kolme kirjaa" (three books) is translated directly as "three books," with "kolme" coming before "kirjaa."
