Usages of lumi
Talvella lumi peittää kadun kokonaan, ja myrsky tekee kävelystä vaikeaa.
In winter the snow covers the street completely, and the storm makes walking difficult.
Lumi näyttää kauniilta, kun se putoaa hiljaa parvekkeen eteen.
The snow looks beautiful when it falls quietly in front of the balcony.
Älkää unohtako hattua ja kaulaliinaa, kun lähdette lumeen leikkimään.
Don’t forget a hat and a scarf when you go out to play in the snow.
Jos hattu putoaa lumeen auton eteen, nostan sen heti ylös.
If the hat falls into the snow in front of the car, I lift it up immediately.
Talvella lumi peittää harmaan katon kokonaan.
In winter the snow covers the grey roof completely.
