  • In this Finnish video lesson, I will go over the basic difference between the words: koska, siksi & sillä.
    My two videos about koska:
    - • Learning 'Koska' in Fi...
    - • Finnish Question Words...
    koska: because, when (question word)
    siksi: therefore, that's why, because of that
    siksi, että: because (synonym with koska)
    sillä: since, due to the fact that (this word can't start a sentence)
    Extra examples:
    1) Menin kauppaan, koska ruoka loppui. = I went to the store, because there is no food (the food ended).
    Menin kauppaan siksi, että ruoka loppui. = (same)
    Ruoka loppui, siksi menin kauppaan. = There is no food (The food ended), that's why I went to the store.
    2) Ostan uuden puhelimen, koska mun meni rikki. = I will buy a new phone, because mine broke.
    Ostan uuden puhelimen siksi, että mun meni rikki, = (same)
    Mun puhelin meni rikki, siksi ostan uuden. = My phone broke that's why I'm buying a new one.
    3) Juon vettä, koska mulla on jano. = I'm drinking water because I'm thirsty.
    Koska mulla on jano, juon vettä. = Because I'm thirsty I'm drinking water.
    Juon vettä, sillä mulla on jano. = I'm drinking water since I'm thirsty.
    4) Laitoin aurinkolasit päälle, koska on aurinkoista. = I put on sunglasses, because it's sunny.
    Koska on aurinkoista, laitoin aurinkolasit päälle. = Because it's sunny, I put on sunglasses.
    Laitoin aurinkolasit päälle, sillä on aurinkoista. = I put on sunglasses since it's sunny.
    The website I got the forecast example sentence from: fi.wiktionary.org/wiki/sill%C...

    In fact, if you start a sentence with "sillä", it will mean "it has" (possession) or "with it" (instrument) instead of "since". And I would say that the conjunction use of "sillä" is kind of highbrow formal language style.

    Thanks Katja, really interesting subject. I was wondering about one of the examples where you say "minulla on tylsää". Is there a reason why this is the "I have" form? It could be idioḿ, I am just curious, how as a English(/Dutch) speaker I can view this. Thanks for the video, as always, very entertaining.

    A question 🖐 Which of these two "koska" or "siksi + että" would you normally use more, i mean siksi + että sounds a bit longer doesn't it?!
    Edit: *also, what about the sentence (came across in the app written by a native) - Sillä aikaa kun syön, sinä voit lukea kirjaa. Since you said the sentence cannot start with "sillä"?

  • @jixxytrix1705
    @jixxytrix1705 Місяць тому

    Haha, Kati my dear! The student has now become the teacher.
    The original meaning of 'sillä' is 'For' and you can in fact begin a sentence using the expression.
    'Sillä käsky on lamppu, opetus on valo, ja kurittava nuhde on elämän tie'
    (For the commandment is a lamp, the instruction is a light and the chastening rebuke is the way of life)

      Hmm well according to the research I did, you’re not supposed to make a sentence like that.

    • @jixxytrix1705
      @jixxytrix1705 Місяць тому

      @@Youlubucki That doesn't seem to be case. Here is the passage in its full context. (Sananlaskut 6: 22-23)
      Kulkiessasi ne sinua taluttakoot,
      maatessasi sinua vartioikoot,
      herätessäsi sinua puhutelkoot.
      Sillä käsky on lamppu, opetus on valo,
      ja kurittava nuhde on elämän tie
      It's clearly a new sentence.
      When I change to the 1992 translation the word is even excluded. Here...
      Kun kuljet, ne ovat oppaanasi,
      kun nukut, ne pitävät vartiota,
      ja kun heräät, ne puhuvat sinulle.
      Käsky on lamppu, opetus on valo,
      kuri ja kasvatus on elämän tie.
      If you're right, what would be the Finnish equivalent to the old timey expression 'for'?
      Just like in Finnish, the meaning has changed slightly.

    The last word of the song singing by Tapani Kansa is "koska". (I don't know the song title.) Why is the song put the word "koska" in the last, even though the word [koska] is for connection between sentences??

    • @izzardclips9350
      @izzardclips9350 21 день тому

      Maybe it was "koskaan", a part of the phrase "ei koskaan" = "ei milloinkaan", meaning "not ever" or "never". Remember that koska can also mean when.

  • @serhiyranush4420
    @serhiyranush4420 Місяць тому

    Perhaps "I am leaving not because I am bored"? Because "I am not leaving because I am bored" is something different. In the former case I AM leaving, but in the latter I am staying.

    Now I'm disappointed on Duolingo, cause I'm doing the Finnish course there and I just got to this new word sillä, and it is used in the beginning of sentences there and it has a different translation, there sillä means "it has", there's a sentence there like this: sillä on monta pentua, and the app says it means "it has many kittens", but since you said sillä means "because", I don't understand how to use it anymore, is the app teaching it wrong? I don't wanna learn anything wrong, if the app is teaching this language wrong then I'm in trouble =\

    • @KatChatsFinnish
      @KatChatsFinnish  Місяць тому

      Ohhh this is a super good point!! The sillä you are taking about and what Duolingo was using is the word “se” in adessive case. Se = it. So it’s actually a completely different word even though it looks the same as what I was talking about. So that’s actually quite confusing you’re right! You can see from the chart here: fi.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/se
      The sillä I talked about in this video is a different word and means because.
      I didn’t even think about this but it’s true, super confusing!!

    • @KywokiYakasaki
      @KywokiYakasaki Місяць тому

      @@KatChatsFinnish I see, so in the end it's wrong either, right? It really is confusing, cause duolingo just put different cases there without explaining anything, there are lots of partitive words, I had to research to understand why the words were finishing with an A, and now there are other cases randomly being put on the lessons, that's the bad thing about that app,it just throws words and declensions and you have to screw yourself to figure out whats going on there,so it makes things way more difficult to learn,and there's no spoken language there either, only the formal one.
      It's sad that it's the only app I have to learn the language, the best one actually, I've been wanting to learn it since 2009 (thanks to Nightwish XD), but unfortunaly no school of languages here in Brazil teaches finnish :( and I really wanna learn it, it's such a beautiful language and also my favorite language, and there's no course of it in my country, I'm trying to learn it by myself, but without a teacher to guide it becomes really hard, but I'm enjoying the experience, even getting confused most of the times.
      Sorry for the late response, these days were a bit chaotic here, and thank you for explaining, it helped me to understand what is what about that word :)
