Usages of hylly
Laitoin pienen paketin ylimmälle hyllylle.
I placed a small package on the top shelf.
Paketti putosi, koska hylly oli epävakaa.
The package fell because the shelf was unstable.
Työkalut olivat olleet hyllyllä, kunnes huoltomies otti ne mukaan palaveriin.
The tools had been on the shelf until the maintenance man took them to the meeting.
Herätyskello on hyllyn yläpuolella.
The alarm clock is above the shelf.
Tyhjennän astianpesukoneen myöhemmin ja laitan astiat hyllylle.
I will empty the dishwasher later and put the dishes on the shelf.
Remonttia varten tarvitsen ruuvimeisselin ja porakoneen, jotta saan hyllyn kiinni seinään.
For the renovation I need a screwdriver and a drill so that I can fasten the shelf to the wall.
En löydä ruuvimeisseliä, joten en voi kiinnittää hyllyä seinään.
I can’t find the screwdriver, so I can’t fasten the shelf to the wall.
Test yourself: What does hylly mean?
