muistaesimerkiksi

muistaesimerkiksi is a Finnish phrase that translates to "remember for example" in English. It is commonly used in everyday conversation to introduce an example or to prompt someone to recall a specific instance. The phrase serves to illustrate a point or to jog the memory of the listener.

The structure of the phrase consists of two parts: "muista" which is the imperative form of the verb "muistaa" (to remember), and "esimerkiksi" which is an adverb meaning "for example". Together, they form a polite and direct way to encourage recollection or to provide an illustrative case.

For instance, if someone is discussing different types of Finnish berries, they might say "Suomessa on monia marjoja, muista esimerkiksi mustikka ja puolukka." This translates to "Finland has many berries, remember for example blueberry and lingonberry." The "muistaesimerkiksi" here prompts the listener to bring to mind common examples of Finnish berries.

The phrase is versatile and can be used in various contexts, from casual chats to more formal discussions. It is a fundamental part of Finnish language usage, facilitating clearer communication by providing concrete illustrations. Its frequent use makes it easily recognizable to any speaker of Finnish.
