DESissä

DESissä is a Finnish term that translates roughly to "in the desk" or "in the drawer." It is most commonly used in the context of keeping something secret, hidden, or unresolved. The phrase implies that a matter or object is being deliberately set aside, often for an indefinite period, rather than being addressed or dealt with immediately.

The implication of DESissä is not necessarily that the item or issue is forgotten, but rather that it is intentionally put out of immediate view or access. This could be due to a variety of reasons, such as waiting for a more opportune moment, avoiding a difficult decision, or simply having too many other priorities. For example, a project proposal might be "DESissä" if it is not currently being pursued but is not entirely rejected either. Similarly, a sensitive document could be stored "DESissä" to prevent unauthorized access.

In some contexts, DESissä can also carry a negative connotation, suggesting procrastination or a lack of action. If a problem is left "DESissä" for too long, it may become more difficult to solve or could lead to negative consequences. The phrase is versatile and can be applied to both tangible objects and abstract concepts like ideas or plans. Its usage is informal and conversational.
