Questions & Answers about Minä lähden juuri puistoon.
Here juuri means right now / just now. It marks immediate timing. Other common uses:
- juuri nyt = right now (extra emphasis)
- ihan juuri = this very moment
- juuri can also mean exactly/precisely (e.g., juuri se = exactly that)
- As a noun, juuri = a root (of a plant) Note: juuri does not mean only. For only use vain or pelkästään.
Finnish uses case endings instead of prepositions. Puistoon is the illative case, meaning into/to (destination). It answers Minne/Mihin? (To where?). So:
- puisto (park) → puistoon (to the park).
