työskennutaan

Työskennutaan is a Finnish word that translates to "let's work" or "we work" in English. It is the first-person plural form of the verb "työskennellä," which means "to work." The word is commonly used in everyday conversation and in more formal contexts when referring to collaborative efforts or the act of working together.

The verb "työskennellä" itself is derived from the word "työ," meaning "work" or "job." The "-skennellä" suffix often indicates a repeated or continuous action, suggesting that "työskennellä" implies working over a period of time or engaging in a consistent effort. Therefore, "työskennutaan" can convey a sense of ongoing or habitual work performed by a group.

In practical usage, "työskennutaan" can be employed in various situations. For instance, a team leader might say "Työskennutaan yhdessä tämän projektin parissa" (Let's work together on this project) to encourage collaboration. Similarly, in a general statement about employment or labor, one might hear "Suomessa työskennutaan ahkerasti" (In Finland, people work diligently), referring to the general workforce. The word emphasizes the collective aspect of labor and shared responsibility.
