Questions & Answers about Lasku baarissa on viisikymmentäyhdeksän euroa.
How do you build a big number like viisikymmentäyhdeksän?
It literally translates to 'five tens nine'. It combines viisi (five), kymmentä (which means 'tens'), and yhdeksän (nine).
Do you always write numbers as one giant word in Finnish?
For numbers up to 99, yes! You combine the parts without any spaces. So fifty-nine becomes the single word viisikymmentäyhdeksän.
Why does the sentence use euroa instead of just euro?
Whenever you have a number greater than one, the noun that follows it must be in the partitive case. Adding -a to euro makes it euroa.
How does baari become baarissa?
The ending -ssa is added to a word to say 'in' or 'inside'. Since baari has the back vowel 'a', we add -ssa (instead of -ssä) to make baarissa (in the bar).
