For example, a parent would nuttaa their child, or someone might nuttaa a stray animal. It can also imply a more deliberate act of offering food, perhaps at a meal or as a gesture of hospitality. The specific object being nutted can vary widely, from regular food items to treats or even medicinal supplements. The context in which nuttaminen is used generally clarifies the precise meaning. It is a fundamental concept related to care and sustenance within Finnish culture.
