Clarity, pertinence and comprehensibility are stated in the legislation as guiding principles of the language of Finnish public administration. This article presents professional administrators’ views about these ideals of administrative language. The issue of good linguistic practices in public administration is discussed from the perspective of professionals who have learnt Finnish as adults. The data come from interviews with professionals (Finnish as L2) and their superiors (Finnish as L1) working in public administration. The article addresses the interviewees’ conceptions of the relevance of clarity, pertinence and comprehensibility in their daily work and their language socialization into the workplace community, the audience design of administrative communication and their agency as users of Finnish administrative language. The analysis shows that the multilingual professionals are confident about their language skills and aware of the varieties of Finnish administrative language and the restrictions in their use. The native speaker superiors refer to the models offered by the more formal bureaucratic genres as an explanation for the linguistic “complexity” that they have occasionally perceived in texts produced by administrators with L2 backgrounds. Instead of adhering to the norms of (formal) standard language, the interviewed superiors promote efficiency as a quality of good administrative language. Kokkuvote.
