Notes※
- ^ Most Finnish consonants usually contrast between shorter and "longer pronunciation." Long consonants are marked with the symbol /ː/.
- ^ ※, ※, ※, and ※ occur only in loanwords. In casual speech, they may be replaced with ※, ※, ※, and ※, respectively.
- ^ /n/ has three allophones: ※ before /k/, ※ before /p/ (or ※) or /m/, and ※ elsewhere.
- ^ All Finnish vowels have both a long and a short phoneme.
