pylly

Pylly is a Finnish colloquial term for the buttocks. It is informal and typically used in casual speech, among friends or family, or in humorous or lighthearted contexts. It is not appropriate for formal writing or clinical discussion, and its tone can range from playful to coarse depending on how it is spoken.

Linguistically, pylly is part of everyday spoken Finnish and is widely understood across dialects. It is one of several terms for the buttocks; more neutral or medical alternatives include peppu, perä, and takapuoli. Pylly tends to carry a lighter or more humorous connotation than these terms and can be used to soften statements or to create a joking mood.

Etymology and usage notes: the exact origin of pylly is not clearly documented in standard references, and it is generally classified as slang or informal vocabulary rather than formal language. In translations to English, pylly is commonly rendered as "butt" or "buttocks," with "bum" or "bottom" depending on the desired register.
