suosittelemme

Suosittelemme is the present tense, first-person plural form of the Finnish verb suositella, meaning to recommend. It expresses a recommendation by the speaker and others and is commonly used when a person or organization speaks on behalf of a group. Because Finnish finite verbs carry the subject, this form often does not require an explicit “we” in text or speech, but the meaning remains “we recommend.”

In everyday and formal Finnish, suosittelemme appears in customer communications, product guides, reviews, and marketing material. It may introduce a direct recommendation: “Suosittelemme tätä tuotetta” (We recommend this product). It can also introduce a subordinate clause: “Suosittelemme, että varaatte ajan” (We recommend that you book an appointment).

Conjugation and related forms: minä suosittelen, sinä suosittelet, hän suosittelee, me suosittelemme, te suosittelette, he suosittelevat. The noun form suositus means recommendation; the verb suositella is part of a family of terms such as suosittelija (recommender) and suositeltava (recommended as an adjective).

Etymology and usage notes: The form is derived from suositella, with the suffix -mme indicating the first-person plural subject. The expression is neutral and widely used in advisory contexts, including consumer guidance and institutional communications. In marketing, it signals a collective endorsement, while in some contexts it may be softened with hedging to maintain a consultative tone.
