Abstract
This paper examines the audio materials accompanying Suomen mestari 2 , a cornerstone textbook in Finnish language education for adult learners. By analyzing the linguistic content, pedagogical progression, and the phenomenon of "full audio" demand among self-learners, this study highlights the pivotal role of listening comprehension in transitioning from A1 to A2 proficiency levels. The analysis suggests that the audio component is not merely supplementary but acts as the primary vehicle for mastering the prosodic and morphological complexities inherent in the Finnish language.
