What it actually is

Published by the Institute for the Languages of Finland, this is the authority on what a Finnish word means and how it inflects, with the inflection-class number on every headword — which is exactly the information you need to decline anything correctly. Switching to it from bilingual dictionaries is a milestone worth aiming for. Finnish-only definitions make it impractical much below B1.
