lisämenetyssanan

Lisämenetyssana, also known as an auxiliary verb, is a type of verb that adds functional information to the main verb in a sentence. In Finnish, auxiliary verbs are used to express tense, mood, voice, and aspect. The most common auxiliary verbs in Finnish are "olla" (to be) and "saada" (to get). These verbs help to form compound tenses, such as the past tense "oli" (was) and the future tense "tulee" (will come). Auxiliary verbs also play a role in forming passive voice constructions, where "olla" is used to indicate that the subject receives the action. For example, in the sentence "Kirja luettiin" (The book was read), "luettiin" is the past passive form of the verb "lukea" (to read), and "olla" is the auxiliary verb that indicates the passive voice. Lisämenetyssanat are an essential part of Finnish grammar, providing structure and clarity to sentences by conveying additional grammatical information.
