Tuonnossa

Tuonnossa is a Finnish term that translates to "there" or "over there" in English. It is commonly used to indicate a location or a direction that is not immediately present or within the speaker's immediate vicinity. The word is an adverb and its usage is dependent on context, similar to how "there" functions in English.

In Finnish grammar, "tuonnossa" is part of a group of demonstrative adverbs that specify location. These include "tässä" (here), "tuossa" (there, nearby), and "tuolla" (there, further away). "Tuonnossa" often implies a location that is slightly more distant or less precisely defined than "tuossa," but not as far off as "tuolla." It can be used in both spoken and written Finnish.

For example, one might say "Kissa on tuonnossa" which means "The cat is over there." The specific distance implied by "tuonnossa" can vary based on the speaker's perception and the surrounding environment. It is a fundamental word in everyday Finnish conversation, essential for conveying spatial relationships. Its precise nuance often relies on intonation and the broader conversational context to differentiate it from similar locative adverbs.
