1. Kaupungissa on vain kaksi asukasta.
This sentence uses the inessive case ('-ssa/-ssä') to indicate location inside something. Here, 'kaupungissa' means 'in the town.' The inessive case is commonly used with the verb 'olla' (to be) to describe where something or someone is located. For example, 'Hän on koulussa' means 'He/she is at school.' Remember to match the vowel harmony: '-ssa' for back vowels (a, o, u) and '-ssä' for front vowels (ä, ö, y).
2. Uusi omistaja hoitaa pubin ja kaupan.
This sentence introduces the present tense of verbs, specifically the 3rd person singular form ('hoitaa'). In Finnish, the present tense is used to describe actions happening now or habitual actions. The verb ending '-a/-ä' is added to the stem, depending on vowel harmony. For example, 'puhua' (to speak) becomes 'hän puhuu' (he/she speaks). This structure is essential for describing daily routines or current responsibilities.
5. He ostivat paikan vuonna 2023.
This sentence uses the past tense ('ostivat') to describe a completed action. In Finnish, the past tense is formed by adding '-i-' to the verb stem and then the personal ending. For example, 'ostaa' (to buy) becomes 'ostin' (I bought) or 'ostivat' (they bought). The past tense is used to talk about events that happened at a specific time in the past, like 'Hän söi eilen' (He/she ate yesterday).
