Reference

Nobody speaks the textbook

Region, age and setting all show in how people actually talk.

What it is for

  • Regional dialects, some quite far from the standard
  • The gap between written Estonian and how people talk
  • Older and literary forms you still meet reading

Watch out

Textbook Estonian is one variety among several. A form that isn't in your book doesn't mean somebody made a mistake.
