The city of Rauma, where Rauma is spoken

The written form of the dialect was preserved by the writer and doctor Hj. Nortamo, and is currently practiced mainly as a hobby. Some of the most distinctive characteristics of the dialect (as written) are the use of letters 'g' and 'b', which are uncommon in the Finnish language. Pronunciation of these letters is, however, is in between 'g' and 'b' and 'k' and 'p' of mainstream Finnish. And the shortening of words.[1] The Rauma dialect also contains its own pitch accent.[2]
