Usages of pitää
Etätyöpäivänä pidämme palaverin pienessä kokoushuoneessa toimiston sijasta.
On a remote-work day we hold a meeting in a small meeting room instead of at the office.
Meidän pitää odottaa hetki.
We have to wait a moment.
Viime viikolla olin ollut rauhaton, koska tentti oli pidetty vain äskettäin.
Last week I had been restless because the exam had been held only recently.
Jos budjetti pitää, voimme ehkä ensi vuonna vuokrata isomman kesämökin.
If the budget holds, we can perhaps next year rent a bigger summer cottage.
Test yourself: What does pitää mean?
