Any foreigner wishing to master spoken Finnish will do well to adopt the following useful expressions.
NIIKU - Does not mean anything but sounds great if used profusely. "Sit me niiku otettiin viinaa ja mentiin niiku rantsuun, mut sit Pera niiku hukku".
ITSE ASIASSA. As the Finns rarely use the word "I", it can be
handily replaced by this idiom. It's a hidden way to make one's self more important and urbane, because country dorks can't pronounce it properly. Thus the speaker informs others that he's not a "heinähattu", who would say "ite asias" or "ihte asiassa". I.A. does not mean anything but it sounds great.
