Usages of sade
Aamulla sade on kevyt, mutta iltapäivällä alkaa myrsky.
In the morning the rain is light, but in the afternoon a storm begins.
Jos sade jatkuu, otan takin ja kaulaliinan.
If the rain continues, I take a coat and a scarf.
Eilen olimme jo tehneet kierroksen keskustassa, kun sade alkoi.
Yesterday we had already done a tour in the city centre when the rain started.
Ellei sade jatku koko päivää, menemme iltapäivällä puutarhaan.
Unless the rain continues all day, we will go to the garden in the afternoon.
Test yourself: What does sade mean?
