0. Kanada ja EU käyvät enemmän kauppaa Trumpin takia.
The verb 'käydä' (to do, to trade) is used here in the present tense plural form 'käyvät' to describe an ongoing action. In Finnish, the present tense can express both current and habitual actions. The phrase 'enemmän kauppaa' uses the partitive case ('kauppaa') because it refers to an unspecified amount of trade. Learners can use this structure to describe general activities, e.g., 'Hän käy kauppaa' (He/She trades).
4. Kanada ja EU sopivat kaupasta vuonna 2016.
The verb 'sopia' (to agree) is used in the past tense plural form 'sopivat' to describe a completed action. Finnish past tense is formed by adding '-i' to the verb stem. The phrase 'kaupasta' uses the elative case ('-sta/-stä') to indicate 'about' or 'regarding' the trade. This case is often used with verbs like 'sopia' (to agree) or 'puhua' (to talk). Learners can practice this by saying, e.g., 'Sopimme lomasta' (We agreed about the vacation).
6. EU tarvitsee Kanadaa harvinaisten maametallien vuoksi.
The verb 'tarvita' (to need) is used in the present tense singular form 'tarvitsee' to describe a current need. The object 'Kanadaa' is in the partitive case because it is the object of a verb expressing a need or desire. The phrase 'harvinaisten maametallien vuoksi' uses the genitive case ('maametallien') with the postposition 'vuoksi' to express reason ('because of'). Learners can use this structure to describe needs, e.g., 'Tarvitsen apua' (I need help).
