Questions & Answers about Minä heitän kirjan.
Yes. In Finnish, the subject pronoun is often omitted because the verb ending already shows the person.
So:
- Minä heitän kirjan.
- Heitän kirjan.
both mean I throw / I am throwing the book.
Including minä can make the subject clearer or more emphatic, a bit like saying I throw the book.
The -n marks first person singular: I.
So:
- heitän = I throw
- heität = you throw
- heittää = he/she throws
- heitämme = we throw
- heitätte = you (plural) throw
- heittävät = they throw
This is why Finnish often does not need the pronoun minä.
