This paper presents a machine translation system between Finnish and North Sámi, two Uralic languages. In this paper we concentrate on the translation direction to Finnish. As a background, the differences between the two languages is presented, followed by how the system was designed to handle some of these differences. We then provide an evaluation of the system’s performance and directions for future work.
