I forgot to add:
Kello on tasan kolme = The time is exactly three // Kello on tasan viisi = The time is exactly five (or the time is five on the hour).
-> you can use this phrase "tasan" to specify the time is on the hour.
~ Also I did notice a minor mistake towards the end when I was talking about 4 : 30 I added the wrong clock time in the corner, just ignore that please, kiitos! ~
kiitossss oot ihan hyvää opetaja!!!! Olin Suomessa melkein 10 kuukautta ja sun videoita olivat auttavainen. Olen pahoilani jos mä kirjoitin jotain väärin mutta toivotavasti sä ymarrät. Kiitoksiaaaaaa
@@ludoromero5196 Ymmärrän täysin, kiitos paljon :)

I'm from England and my internet friend from Finland has started teaching me Finnish. But as an extra resource your video's are fantastic because we only chat with written messages not verbal. You have no idea how helpful these videos are - I am absolutely terrible at languages. But between you and my friend I am slowly getting there. Thank you! Please do more.
Wow I'm so happy to hear that, thank you so much :)
Don´t mind if you are confused by the use of "puoli" because of translating from english, we use the same system in german as you do in finnish. Even for only native german speakers it is confusing time by time and your friends show up an hour later because they where in a hurry during setting the date...
Thank you for including the puhekieli version too :)
No problem 😊
I definitely use the "puoli" version all the time. To me it's not confusing at all. But I'm used to it. Great video, definitely can see it helping people out. Very clear examples
Awesome! Thank you so much! :)
"Varttii yli yks" "Varttii vaille .." puhekieli as I remember it. I have known lots of people confusing the half hour thing when traveling from Finland. Good Job warning about that.
I've been studying Finnish class for 2 months now and i am very confused the time, so thank you very much for this very clear elaboration...
Thanks for the video! Nice touch of writing it down in both puhekieli and kirjakieli, I like it. About the half two bit, in Dutch it is the same as in Finnish, so for me it is not confusing at all. I remember trying to tell someone in English that it was 14:35. In Dutch we say 5 past half three. Saying that in English, it got to be "5 minutes past ... (realizing I was saying something weird) ... half past two". Sometimes the other will say nothing, or just smile, sometimes they will help me by saying two thirty five. Anyway, the point is, I don't think Finnish has a weird way of saying it. From my point of view it makes complete sense. I also remember in some parts of England people *do* say "half two" and I would need to comfirm that to be sure whether they mean half past two of half to two. Sorry for the rant. Like you video!
Luulen että tota "half past one" systeemiä käytetään lähinnä pelkästään englannin kielisessä maailmassa. Kaikissa muissa kielissä mitä oon nähnyt (espanja, saksa, venäjä, ruotsi ym.) käytetään tätä samaa systeemiä kun Suomessa :D mä sanon "one thirty" englanniksi kun mulla taas on toi ongelma toisinpäin
smart clock way! THANKS
Thanks for sharing...I used to watch it everytime I'm free... Nahdaan 🤗🤗🙋
Kiitos paljon 🥰
very helpful and easy lesson! Thank you :)
Perfect video, kiitos! I was having a lot o trouble understanding the hours, ESPECIALLY the ”puoli” rules, so thanks for acknowledging its confusion lol
Glad it helped! :)
Thank you so very much 😊
Your videos are on point. Very educative
Thanks a lot . Really it's amazing . It helps me a lot to understand this wonderful longuage.
I really learn a lot from your videos. ❤ It helps me especially on the pronounciation part. I started from ABC's, numbers, days of the week, colors,and a lot more. Kiitos paljon 🙏
Also, german/deutsch have the same pattern like puoli in suomeks. Its really confusing at first. 😂
Wonderfully presented! I like the way u articulate yo words.
Kiitos!
Kiitos!
Very complicated from a English man who can't even speak perfect English!!!Thank you!!♥️♥️♥️👍
You're welcome 😊
'puoli + tunti' - it's same version that we use in Ru, we say it exactly the same way , so 4 me is easy to understand more then 'varttia' thing , cos in Ru we say - ilman 'minuutti' 'tunti' - without 1 minute 12 =11:59 so we always have 3 versions to say any time ( without x 'minute' of next hour, x 'minute' of now hour and just numbers ) too bad that in my lang no short form 4 numbers so u need to say it fully - clock is 'одинадцать пятьдесят девять'= 11:59 = 'ykstoist viis kyt yheksän'
Thank you!!
The puoli nelja (3:30) works the same in Polish language. We do not say past but to instead. Great vid. Keep up the good work
Makes it easier to learn then! :D
Thanks so much my Teacher 😊
Thanks for the video. really helpful
very clear explaination, Thank you .😊
Glad it was helpful!
Kiitos 🌹
Thanks for this video 🥰
You’re welcome 😊
kiitos 😍
Thankyou so much, every teaching was very clear and understanding. Its my beginning of learning finnish language. Im from srilanka, the video was so helpful to me and hopes to study further with your explanations
I’m so glad!! Kiitos paljon!
I really want to learn more about Finnish... Thanks for the video it's very helpful
Thank you
My dad was in the Air Force during the Vietnam campaign and one thing he’s taught me is that our military also uses 24-hour time. They call it Zulu time.
We used in military (Germany) the expression "Zulu time" for the timezone UTC+0 (=NATO standard time), Alpha was UTC+1(Middle European time), Bravo UTC+2 (Middle European Summer time), and so on.
Yes, in the aviation world time is always in GMT or "Zulu" as you say. The reason is that on flight plans sent by Telex (teleprinter) a single "Z" was all that was needed, e.g. "1530Z" instead of 1530GMT and in the phonetic alphabet used in aviation, Z is "Zulu".
very informative
kiitos paljon, rakastan videoitasi
Kiitos paljon! :D
nice sisko keep going. N yea kiitos
in my native language (czech) we also have half to xx, and even though i speak german where this is the same, i still get confused because of english.😂 thank you for the video btw, it was super helpful!xx
Minä opiskelen suomea nyt,se on todella hieno video.😊😊😊
Thanks
Kiitos. Sinä olet aina mukava
Kiitos 🙏🏻
it is interesting because "half past" in Finnish is used by the same way as in Russian!
Actually Russians go further - they say "10 past 1" as "10 minutes of the 2nd" (tried to translate literally) and "10 to 2" they say as "2 without 10"
Oh wow is it? That sounds confusing hahahah
yeah, тот случай когда даже многие не понимают это халф паст
I love you! I really do...
Thanks for the lesson! By the way, for me that "half past" feels absolutely natural since Russian is my first language and there's absolutely the same way of referring to time in it which is very common to use.
Oh that's great, glad it's the same in Russian then! :D Kiitos for watching
@@KatChatsFinnish Same in German, "halb drei(3)" is 2:30/14:30
@@thomasprofesoraleman I was going to mention the same thing about German time telling!
Kiitos paljon
Kiitos!
you are really great teacher
Wow its very interesting
Kittos🙏🙏🙏
Kiitos paljon!
Moi Kat!
Please, can you make a video about most common adjectives in finnish??
Kiitos paljon💜
Sure! I'll look into doing some adjective videos! :) Thank you for the suggestion!
@@KatChatsFinnish You are welcome😻😻
You say you are dumb and lazy, all I hear is you are a great engineer.
Thank you. I have come across Finnish text where "she rises at six o'clock" is "hän nousee kello kuudelta" (not kuusi). Other times have elta, älta. Please would you mind telling me what these word endings mean? Is it to signify the action of rising? Thank you
Do you have any videos on the partitive case and when to use it? I really struggle with it 😅 And great video! I learned a lot! 🌟💖
Not yet! I have only done the first case "nominatiivi" but plan to try and tackle the rest starting next year! So stay tuned for those videos :D (and yes I agree, partitiivi will be challenging to teach too hahaha) xD
can you tell me why minuutti turns to "minuuttia" and Vartti turns to "Varttia"? Why we have to put that "ia" on the finish?
It is the singular partitive case. That is used after numbers greater than one.
@@okaro6595 More like not-one units. You'd use it for fractions and zero too.
I didn't use quarter past only kello on vissi nelja kymmentä or like this only for time
Hey Kat, a silly question: in the “13:08” example in Spanish for example we woulnd’t say “it’s eight minutes past one” exactly, we would say like “it’s *almost* ten past one” (es *casi* la una y diez), we kinda round the hour to the nearest five-multiple unit. Is there any way of saying that in Finnish? And if there is, is it a common thing to say?
I guess if you want to say it that way it would be “kello on melkein kymmenen yli yks” = its almost ten past one, and it would make sense :)
I would say "ten past one". If one needs more exact time he should get his own watch. Especially on an analog dial it takes effort to read at minute accuracy.
Is there such a word as “Sisu”in in reference to courage, or determination ,in a time of struggle. I am from WI ,and my grandfather came from Finland around 1900.
Yes there is! :) Sisu can be used quite broadly to describe situations as the one you have mentioned!
Is "puoli kaksi" (half past 1) is true for time only or for other measurements also?
For example: I am half way to 3 kilometres milestone
Yeah I’d say so, only for time
Did you learn Finnish from your parents? I know one of your parents is America. Your accent is so good.
I did! One of my parents is Finnish
@@KatChatsFinnish one of mine was also Finnish but was born in the US. Was absolutely fluent and literate in Finnish. My sister and I did not learn it. 😕
for "what time is it", can we also say "paljonko kello on"? and how to state morning/afternoon?
Yea you can! And you can say: aamu/iltapäivä or aamulla = in the morning / iltapäivällä = in the afternoon
Hello, I learned that the correct form to say 1:15 is "Kello on vartin yli yksi", can I use both as correct? or what's the difference between use vartin or varttia? if exist a difference, in wich cases I have to use each one? or use "vartin" is a mistake? Thanks
Yeah I think you can say it that way too! Both are fine :)
@@KatChatsFinnish Ok thank you :)
"vartin yli" is fine, but saying "vartin vaille" sounds bit weird so it is better to use "varttia vaille".
Thanks for the video! I am also sad because I was actually afraid if you use "half past" phrase like "half to(?)" just as in German. Seems i cannot escape from it anymore. :c
What an amazing english, i hope you understand :,D
Haha yess Finnish has it too D: And kiitos for watching ^-^
Thanks so much!
Can you emphasize on 24 hours
You are beautiful!
Halfs work the same way in polish language. As a native polish speaker I actually find it pretty easy lol
Awesome! :D
❤️
Paljon kiitoksia! German also has the awkward "__ :30" precept which I noticed in the other comments.
Hahah thats interesting, I didn’t know!
so if it's half past seven you would say halb acht, right? (talking about the german language)
Eddie Tiller exactly!
We have a cool time feature hier in the south of Germany which is probably extrem rare worldwide because even lots of Germans from other regions are quite confused by it. And I never heard it in other Languages.
We say "it's three quarters 12" for example.
What the heck could this mean? Think about it, ...
well it means it's a Quarter to 12! :-) Is your mind a bit paralized by this? - so think about the Clock as a cake maybe that helps you out ...
Please could you please give website for practice?
Duolingo taught me to use paljonko instead of mitä for time. Are both of them correct?
Yes they are! I have a video about paljonko as well :)
How do I say I applied for health insurance last week and I'm here for the appointment in Finnish. Thanks
Hain terveysvakuutusta viime viikolla ja minulla on tänään täällä ajanvaraus.
@@KatChatsFinnish kiitos
what is the difference between puoli kolme and puoi kolmelta?..kiitos paljon..🙂
Puoli kolme = 2:30
Puoli kolmelta = at 2:30
I’m finnish, why am I even here?
You wanna know what time it is
Joo, jos joku viel haluu tietää mitä kello on, ni se on kolmetoista yli kaks. Very helpful information.
Kui mun kello näyttää ysiä?
😄😄😄😄😄
Good-looking teacher?
Kiitos kaikesta my favorite cat ☘ mutta miksi sinä et puhu vain suomeksi ? 🤔
I find it easier to explain concepts in English, plus I don't have time to subtitle such long videos! :)
@@KatChatsFinnish kiitos ⚘
Is it correct 14.00 tasan niljätoista? Or tasan kaksi?
Tasan neljätoista and tasan kaksi are both fine :)
When I take my Finnish language regarding clock...I got 60%🤩🤩🤩🤩clearly sounds failed lol
It's strange to me that the puol something or half past something would cause confusion. I mean if you have "half (of) x" then obviously that's smaller than x and if you have something past x then you are adding something to x so the result is bigger than the original x. Finnish could easily adopt an expression like "puol yli yks" (in addition to the already existing "puol kaks") and I don't see how that would cause any confusion.
Nope. puoli yli yksi would likely be taken half a minute past one based on the way [number] yli is used, not half an hour past.
@@elderscrollsswimmer4833 Yeah, not buying it. Talking about moments of time that are half an hour past something is so much more common than talking about halfs of a minute that in 99% of cases people would be able to infer the meaning based on context even if the expression itself is somewhat ambiguous. It didn't even occur to me that half a minute past something would be a reasonable interpretation, so I would say you are overestimating the likelihood of people interpreting it like that.
How to pronounce..
Syksyllä-autumn
Syyskuu-september
moi..can I ask how to say date in finish?..can you translate this please..june 25 ..kiitos
usually people say päivä. So june 25 would be: kesäkuun 25. (kahdeskymmenesviides) päivä
very gratefull for your answer@@KatChatsFinnish ..kiitos paljon
Kitoos
🙋♂️ Mikä on kello 0:00, 0:01🙂 kiitos
keskiyö = midnight, minuutti yli keskiyö = a minute after midnight (if this is what you are asking haha)
Can we say 30 yli 2 for 2:30
It’s not the most natural imo but people will definitely understand you and it makes sense
In the intro and outro, you spoke loudly and clearly but in the main part you didn't. Hope you can speak a little bit louder and even i volume up as loud as my computer can, it's still hard to hear u speak clearly
How do you say from 6 to 14?
Kuudesta kahdeen? 🤔
Can I say neljätoisteen? 😣
Kuudesta neljääntoista
@@KatChatsFinnish thanks for such a prompt reply! 🤯🤯🤯
While I do not understand how both words can end in -sta, I will try to look deeper into it. You helped me. 😊👍
Gracias el vídeo

Saksassa me puhutaan kellonajasta samalla tavalla kuin suomessa. Siksi onneksi se ei aiheuttaa ongelmia mulle
