ensiillasta

Ensiillasta is a neologism derived from Finnish words and is sometimes used in informal contexts. The term can be understood as a compound of "ensi" meaning "first" or "next" and "illasta" which is a diminutive or casual form of "ilta" meaning "evening." Therefore, "ensiillasta" can colloquially refer to the upcoming evening or the very beginning of the evening. Its usage is largely dependent on the specific context and the speaker's intent. It is not a formally recognized word in standard Finnish dictionaries. The word's popularity might stem from a desire for more casual or endearing ways to refer to the evening. When encountered, it is best understood as a playful or informal expression for the early part of the evening.
