lähettäisi

lähettäisi is the conditional mood, third-person singular form of the Finnish verb lähettää. The verb lähettää translates to "to send" in English. The conditional mood in Finnish is used to express hypothetical situations, wishes, or polite requests. Therefore, lähettäisi typically means "he/she/it would send" or "would send" when referring to a singular third-person subject.

For example, in a sentence like "Hän lähettäisi kirjeen, jos hänellä olisi aikaa," which translates to "He/She would send the letter if he/she had time," lähettäisi clearly indicates a conditional or hypothetical action. It can also be used in a more polite or tentative way, similar to how "would" is used in English for softer suggestions.

The conditional mood is formed by adding the suffix -isi- to the verb stem. In the case of lähettää, the stem is lähettä-, and adding -isi- results in lähettäisi. The third-person singular ending is usually zero, meaning no additional ending is attached after the conditional suffix. This form is consistent across many Finnish verbs when conjugated in the conditional mood for the third-person singular.
