Suullisista

Suullisista is a Finnish adjective that translates to "oral" or "verbal" in English. It is derived from the Finnish word "suu," meaning "mouth." This adjective is used to describe something that is spoken rather than written or acted. For example, "suullinen koe" refers to an oral examination, and "suullinen sopimus" means a verbal agreement. The concept of suullisista emphasizes communication through spoken words. In legal contexts, suullinen sopimus can be binding, though often more difficult to prove than a written contract. Similarly, in education, suullinen esitys is a presentation delivered verbally. The opposite of suullisista would be "kirjallinen," meaning written. The distinction between oral and written forms of communication is fundamental across many disciplines, including linguistics, law, and education, and the term suullisista plays a key role in these discussions within the Finnish language.
