Keräilläänkö

Keräilläänkö is a Finnish phrase that translates to "Shall we collect?" or "Are we collecting?". It is often used in a casual, everyday context, typically among friends or family. The phrase implies a shared activity of gathering or accumulating something. The nature of what is being collected is determined by the surrounding conversation or situation.

For example, one might say "Keräilläänkö marjoja?" which means "Shall we collect berries?". This could be a suggestion to go out into the forest and pick berries. Similarly, "Keräilläänkö postimerkkejä?" would translate to "Are we collecting stamps?", indicating a shared hobby.

The phrase can also be used in a more abstract sense. For instance, it might be used when discussing accumulating memories or experiences. In such a case, the meaning is metaphorical rather than literal. The exact nuance depends heavily on the context in which it is spoken. It is a simple yet versatile expression in the Finnish language.
