0. Euroopan unionin tuomioistuin sanoo, että Unkarin laki on huono.

This sentence uses the genitive case ('Unkarin') to show possession, meaning 'Hungary's law.' In Finnish, possession is often indicated by the genitive case, which typically ends in '-n.' For example, 'minun kirja' means 'my book.' Learners can practice this by pairing a noun with another noun in the genitive case to show ownership.

4. Laki loukkaa ihmisten oikeuksia.

The verb 'loukkaa' (to violate) is used with the partitive case ('oikeuksia'). The partitive case is often used with verbs that describe actions affecting only part of something or actions that are ongoing. For example, 'Syön leipää' means 'I am eating bread.' Learners should remember to use the partitive case with verbs that describe incomplete or ongoing actions.

5. Euroopan unionin tuomioistuin vaatii, että Unkari poistaa lain.

The verb 'vaatia' (to demand) is followed by a clause introduced by 'että' (that). This is a common structure in Finnish for reporting requests or commands. For example, 'Hän pyytää, että tulet' means 'He asks that you come.' Learners can use this pattern to express indirect requests or demands.
