isäsin

Isäsin is a Finnish word that translates to "my father" in English. It is a possessive form of the word "isä," which means "father." The "-ni" suffix indicates first-person singular possession. Therefore, "isäsin" specifically refers to the speaker's own father. This grammatical construction is common in Finnish, where suffixes are used extensively to denote possession, tense, and other grammatical functions. The word is used in everyday conversation and writing to refer to one's father. For example, a person might say "Minun isäsin on lääkäri," meaning "My father is a doctor." The word can also be used in a more general sense, referring to a paternal figure or ancestor, though this is less common and context-dependent. The precise nuance of "isäsin" is deeply tied to its grammatical role as a possessive pronoun in the Finnish language.
