ttömä

ttömä is a Finnish word that translates to "empty" or "void" in English. It can be used in various contexts, both literal and figurative.

Literally, ttömä can describe a physical space that is devoid of contents, such as an empty room or an empty bottle. For example, "Huone oli ttömä" means "The room was empty."

Figuratively, ttömä can refer to a state of emotional emptiness or a lack of purpose. It can describe a feeling of hollowness or a sense of being lost. In this sense, it might be used to express feelings of sadness, despair, or disillusionment. For instance, "Elämä tuntui ttömältä" translates to "Life felt empty."

The word can also be used in a more abstract sense, referring to emptiness in a philosophical or existential context. It might be used to discuss the absence of meaning or the concept of nothingness.

The pronunciation of ttömä involves a distinct "ttö" sound, which is common in Finnish. The double "t" creates a slightly prolonged "t" sound, and the "ö" is a rounded vowel similar to the "u" in "fur" or the "eu" in French "feu." The final "mä" is a common Finnish ending.
