lisääm

lisääm is a Finnish verb that translates to "to add" or "to increase" in English. It is a common and versatile verb used in a wide range of contexts, from simple arithmetic to more abstract concepts of growth or accumulation.

In its most basic sense, lisääm refers to the act of joining one thing to another, thereby increasing the quantity or number. For example, "lisää sokeria kahviin" means "add sugar to the coffee." It can also describe the process of making something larger or more intense. For instance, "lisää lämpöä" translates to "increase the heat."

Beyond physical addition, lisääm can also be used metaphorically. It can describe the act of contributing to something, such as adding one's opinion to a discussion ("lisää mielipiteensä keskusteluun"). It can also refer to the growth or expansion of something intangible, like adding to one's knowledge or experience. The verb is conjugated according to standard Finnish grammar rules, with different endings indicating tense, mood, and person. Understanding lisääm is fundamental for comprehending many everyday Finnish expressions and constructions.
