All, please keep in mind that the pronunciation is not the point of this article, nor did I claim that this is the pronunciation from Finland. It is the pronunciation used in a certain region in the United States, and it has a couple of different pronunciations in that region.

Also note that if you really want to know what Finnish pronunciation is, I provided a link to an audio file, and that link has been there since the creation of this article, so this debate has been pointless. No more comments regarding pronunciation will be approved. If you have comments regarding this recipe, such as how to improve it, those are welcome.

I disagree with the pronunciation…
the a in kakku is NOT like O in ‘gock’! it’s like a U in duck… all of the As are the same sound in pannukakku…
the P is kind of in between a B and a P… more like a sound made with the lips not the vocal chords….
the G is in between a g and a k… again a sound, but in the back of the throat NOT with voice from the vocal chords and lungs…
the U is like the sound of the oo in ‘book’ it’s a short sound…

I hope this has helped
oh and remember if there is one letter it’s a short sound…. double letter (the Ns and Ks eg) it is a longer sound, because Finnish is 100% phonetic

I lived in Finland for three years and I agree with Joona Palaste’s pronunciation of Pannukakku. Pannukakku is quick and easy to make and the taste is great. It has been fourteen years since I lived in Finland and I still make the wonderful tasting pan cake two or three times each month.

I saw a link to this blog on Wikipedia. I speak Finnish natively, so I wanted to tell you that the pronunciation “BAH-noo-gock-goo” you give in this post is very much wrong. In Finnish, “p” and “k” are pronounced just like in English, not like “b” and “g”. A better pronunciation would be “PAH-noo-kock-koo”.

I had the Suomi’s Pannukakku just this morning before leaving Houghton, MI. Now, back in Appleton, WI, I can’t wait to try this recipe. Thanks!
