kuollin
Kuollin is a Finnish word that translates to "died" in English. It is the past tense plural form of the verb kuolla, meaning "to die." This grammatical form is used when referring to multiple individuals who have passed away. For instance, a sentence might state "He saivat uutiset, että moni kuollin sodassa" which translates to "They received the news that many died in the war." The word itself is a straightforward descriptor of a deceased state and carries no inherent connotations beyond its literal meaning. It is a common term encountered in news reports, historical accounts, and any context discussing mortality. Its usage is strictly functional, denoting the cessation of life for more than one person. The singular past tense form is kuoli, used for a single individual. Understanding kuollin is essential for comprehending Finnish narratives that involve multiple deaths.
