Usages of aika
Historian koe oli viime viikolla, ja se oli aika tylsä.
The history exam was last week, and it was quite boring.
Tämä päivä on aika pitkä.
This day is quite long.
Kurssin alussa olin vielä aika epävarma.
At the beginning of the course I was still quite unsure.
Päivän lopussa ajattelen, että tavallinen arki hammaslääkärin, kampaajan ja lautapelien kanssa on lopulta aika loistava.
At the end of the day I think that ordinary everyday life with the dentist, the hairdresser and board games is actually quite great in the end.
