iipissä

iipissä is a Finnish slang term that broadly refers to a feeling of being drunk or intoxicated. It is derived from the Finnish word "iisi," which means "easy." The term is often used in informal social contexts, particularly among younger people, to describe a state of mild to moderate intoxication.

The intensity of the feeling conveyed by "iipissä" can vary. It typically implies a relaxed and perhaps slightly disinhibited state, rather than severe drunkenness. Someone who is "iipissä" might be described as feeling a bit giddy, having a reduced sense of coordination, or experiencing a general sense of well-being associated with alcohol consumption. The term is not generally used to describe intoxication from other substances.

While "iipissä" is a common expression in casual Finnish conversation, it is not a formal or clinical term. Its usage is confined to informal settings and reflects a colloquial understanding of being under the influence of alcohol. The ease implied by the root word "iisi" suggests a gentle or manageable level of intoxication.
