Perinteisilläkin

Perinteisilläkin is a Finnish word that can be translated in several ways depending on the context, but it fundamentally refers to something that is traditional, even when contrasting with something else. The word is formed by adding the "-kin" suffix to "perinteisillä." The "-kin" suffix in Finnish often means "also," "even," or "too." Therefore, "perinteisilläkin" implies "even with the traditional ones" or "also with the traditional ones."

This phrase is typically used in comparative sentences. For example, one might say that a modern approach is effective, "perinteisilläkin" methods might still have their place. This suggests that while the new method is good, the traditional methods are also valid or still relevant in some situations. It acknowledges the existence and potential usefulness of older or established ways, even when discussing newer alternatives. The meaning is subtle and depends heavily on the preceding statement. It’s not about dismissing the traditional but rather including it in a broader consideration.
