    Thanks, Pekka. I trust that your last info is trustworthy.

    By the way, the online dictionary is this one:



    It's strange that it doesn't know so nice word as mukavaa.

        Vagabond, well i figure it shouldn't have it. 'mukavaa' is .. someone with better english and knowledge of äidinkieli help me out. I can't properly explain it now, but it's some of the many ways to word mukava bends. Of course it has different meanings . Happy learning!

        IW, Happy learning to you too, you can't make it!

          Ok let's try it this way. mukava means all those things you mentioned before. It also means nice.
          'Sepäs mukavaa' means that's nice.
          'mukavaa' means just nice.
          Okay now i confused myself. Well you have to blame yourself for getting me into this!

          Just learn japanese. It's easier and more interesting and more of use .

            Well, I can imagine that "mukavaa", while being a kind of declension of "mukava", at the same time gets a slightly different meaning.

              I wonder if it would be a promising business idea to move to US to teach finnish. I bet it's not .

                If this is what you want to do, you've got a better chance in St.Petersburg.

                    Decent toilets? Sepäs mukavaa. Well, I suppose you have to propose something really revolutionary if you hope to sell them in the States. I guess it will be thermo-regulated seats.

                        Oh and also, what's up with your doors? They are placed often in a way that when you enter the main door, you enter the living room! It's nice to brake up an intimate moment between the family by entering the living room from the front door. And most of the doors can be just kicked in, no wonder the bad guys rob houses so often.

                        Ok sorry about my rant . Had to get it out of the system.

                                Yes toilets... but how do you make them 'decent' if the ones we have aren't decent?
