In our series of Finnish sayings, this is a bit of a more modern one, but it is still funny. When someone is yapping to you and you just aren't interested, you can say "Kiviäkin kiinnostaa" and hope your conversation partner doesn't maul you. It translates to "Even the rocks are intrigued", and it means "I am not interested in this at all."

Hi, my name is Mavi, and I'm fundraising to purchase three books f… Mavi Villatoro needs your support for One Step Closer to My Future – I J

Hi everyone, I could use a little help! I'm currently in school and need a couple of important textbooks I can’t afford right now. I'm going to start a Language course that I need to pass to continue my education and also be able to find a job.

I already paid for the course but don't have enough money to buy the books. The cost is 55.95e each. And they are two. I’ve set up a small GoFundMe to help cover the costs—every little bit helps!

Even if you can't donate, sharing this would mean a lot. Thank you so much ❤️

Some American/British TV series' Finnish names and those names translated back to English

So in the Finnish language we have this word "jumalattomasti", which literally means "without a god". It's used as an expression when someone does something a lot, example: Toi on ihan jumalatomaton määrä juustoa! = That's way too much cheese!

Imagine someone just telling you that you did something like you had no god.

(Though i need to note that it's more informal/slang, but still a fun expression nonetheless :")

Edit: you can never have too much cheese. Ungodly amount of cheese are just words of a coward.

The proper translation of the Finnish word kotihiiri is homebody (or similar), but I like using the literal translation of house mouse instead because it rhymes.

Finnish sayings that work in English

Here are some sayings which work more or less directly in English and in Finnish (with a few exceptions where the translation isn't directly the same, for example "the picking raisins from the pulla" one and "pulling on the same rope"). I haven't given the meaning of these since I am assuming people know them either from English or from Finnish, but just ask if any of these are new to you.

ottaa ohjat käsiinsä = to take the reins

pitää omana tietonaan = to keep [some information] to oneself

osua naulan kantaan = to hit the nail on the head

ottaa paineita = to take pressure

painaa mieltä = to be weighing on one's mind

laittaa kaikki peliin = to go all in, to put everything in the game

pelastaa nahkansa = to save one's skin

pitää päänsä = to keep one's head

pitää pää kylmänä = to keep a cool head

poimia rusinat pullasta = to cherry pick [to pick the raisins from the pulla]

purra ruokkivaa kättä = to bite the hand that feeds you

olla puun ja kuoren välissä = to be between a rock and a hard place

nähdä parempia päiviä = to see better days

laskea rimaa = to lower the bar

nostaa rimaa = to raise the bar

asettaa rima korkealle = to set the bar high

ryömiä kiven alta = to crawl out from under a rock

silittää päätä = to pat on the head

pelata varman päälle = to play it safe

vetää lyhin/lyhyt tikku = to draw the short straw
