näyttelit
Näyttelit is a Finnish term that translates to "you acted" or "you performed" in English. It is the past tense, second-person singular form of the verb "näytellä," which means to act or perform. This word is used when referring to a single person who has previously taken on a role, whether in a theatrical production, a film, or any other form of performance. The context in which "näyttelit" is used will often indicate the specific nature of the acting or performance. For instance, one might say "Näyttelit hyvin roolissasi" which means "You acted well in your role." The verb "näytellä" itself can also be used more broadly to describe the act of pretending or feigning something, so "näyttelit" could also mean "you pretended" or "you feigned." The precise meaning is derived from the surrounding sentence and the overall situation. This word is a common part of everyday Finnish conversation, particularly when discussing arts and entertainment or describing past actions involving pretense.
