    Someone at a bus stop in Tampere says: "Nysse tulee!" when he sees the bus coming leading to a joke that "Nysse" is a bus in Tampere. It's actually "nyt se". (Now it). Se of course referring to the bus at the bus stop.

    The origin of "läppä" is a sketch from a 1980's tv humor show. It came a "meme" of that time and now it's in common use along Finns.
    The origin of "intti" is because in the past many Finnish army's items had carving or printing "SA-Int" which is an abbreviation of "Suomen armeijan intendentuuriosasto" that means the commissariat department of the Finnish army.

    This is a very good video. When I first learned Finnish many years ago I only learned "kirjakieli" and didn't know there was such a thing as puhekieli. As a result I could understand news and books pretty well but understood very little of movies and actual conversations which was very confusing and disheartening. Luckily I learned puhekieli pretty quickly once I got into it. I'm familiar with most of the words in this video but I learned two new ones. I never heard the word "dösä" before and for some reason I didn't know the word "vika" even though I'm well familiar with "eka" (ensimmäinen).

      @@Cogmud in my original comment it’s used more like this:
      ”minun mielestäni koirat ovat parempia lemmikkejä kuin kissat”=”in my opinion, dogs are better pets than cats are”
      ”mitä meinaat?”(also ”mitä tarkoitat”)=”what do you mean?
      ”minun mielestäni koirat osoittavat enemmän hellyyttä”=”I think dogs show more affection”
      ”Meinata” can also be used as in the example you provided. Meinata can also mean ”to think of doing something”. ”Meinasin mennä puistoon eilen”=”I thought of going to the park yesterday”. Note that this can be also translated to ”I was gonna go to the park yesterday”
      ”Meinata” can also mean something that is/was going to happen that you didn’t intend. If you WERE GOING TO trip by accident, you can say ”Minä meinasin kaatua”=”I was (almost) going to fall”. Note that ”meinasin kaatua” can NOT be translated to ”I thought of falling” as falling is not something intentional like going to the park

    Hi Kat. Very good. I didn’t read all the comments, so do not know if you emphasized the pronunciation of the geminated consonant. Many years later, a student from France, Rennes studied the architecture of Finnish churches. I taught her many same things in the email than you, but I particularly emphasized how the geminated consonants should be noticed. I used my name Matti as an example. I told her that Matti-word has a gemination, meaning that both character must be pronounced. For example, not Mati, but Matti. I made other examples of the same thing, kuten kisa and kissa. I met her twice and found that she has managed this. In the school, I made a typo by writing the word kuusi with one u-character. It taught me accuracy. Thank you. Have a great day. Matti

    It's important to notice that the commonly known puhekieli is false advertising, it's not general informal speech, it's more of a modern helsinki dialect. Although some of the words in this video are pretty much universal, for example intti and kisa.
    Informal speech varies much throughout the country and many of the words in this video would sound funny elsewhere in Finland. To use myself as an example, I always say linja-auto and kiitos, usually say vahinko and viimeinen though the counterparts in this video don't strike me as odd either, and would practically never say venata, minsa, meinata or meininki.

    I think I've actually spotted a German loanword in Finnish. "Vitsi" looks like it comes from German "Witz." I thought it more probably would have come from a Swedish word, but Google Translate tells me the Swedish word for "joke" is "skämt."

      Possible, i already found some very similar words. Could also come from Norwegian or Swedish "Vits".I think that most "German" loan words actually come from Swedish. But "Besserwisseri" comes certainly from the German word "Besserwisser" :D

      @@nhuck_corris8885 Okay, I'll agree with you. Whenever I see what looks to me like a German loanword in Finnish, I assume it's probably a Swedish loanword instead, and then I go running off to Google Translate to check. Since GT didn't give me "vits," I thought I had finally found an actual German one. I'm wrong again!

      @@bigscarysteve If it helps most Finnish military terminology comes from German (while I think quite a lot of the Swedish military terminology comes from French). Not really loanwords as much as direct translations, but hey it's something.
      Examples:
      1. Tank = Panssarivaunu (Armour wagon) = Panzerkampfwagen. In Sweden it's "stridsvagn", basically just Kampfwagen.
      2. Assault Rifle = rynnäkkökivääri (assault rifle) = Sturmgewehr. Note that in Sweden it's called "automatkarbin", automatic carbine.
      3. Machine gun = konekivääri (machine rifle) = Maschinengewehr. In Sweden it's "kulspruta", lead sprayer/syringe.
      4. Submachine gun = konepistooli (machine pistol) = Maschinenpistole. In Sweden "kulsprutepistol", lead sprayer/syringe pistol
      What I find funny is that the Swedish speaking (~5% of Finns have Swedish as mothertounge) Nyland Brigade of the FDF use the Finnish terminology directly translated to Swedish (language) instead of the Swedish (country) ones. So Assault rifle is stormgevär, tank is panssarvagn, MG is maskingevär, SMG is maskinpistol etc. In these the German origin is quite a bit more obvious. It's an endless source of arguments between Swedish speaking Finns and Swedes. As long as both participants are stubborn enough.

      I remember guessing what "putzen" means. Putsaa/putsata means "to clean" in finnish as well.
      Btw, "auto" (car) is auto in finnish too. :)

      It’s because of the long border with Russia and history basically.
      There is also sivari / siviilipalvelus, which is a non-military civil service option, that is about 12 months now I guess. And then there is totaali / totaalikieltäytyminen for those that also refuse civil service, so they usually end up spending 6 months in prison.

    If I type "venata" in Google Translate is says "screw up" instead "to wait". "Venataan bussia" says "to pull the bus". So, it looks like using Google Translate isn't a good idea. I do not think Finns want to hear I'm going to screw up the bus as if I am some kind of violent vandal.
