| Example in Finnish | Translation in English |
|---|---|
| He voisivat ilmoitella aikaisemmin, vai kuinka? | They could inform us sooner. Don't you think? |
| Mutta en kestä sitä, että ilmoittelet kysymättä jonkun jätkän nukkuvan sohvallasi! | What I can't live with is you casually informing me that some guy's going to be staying in your apartment without even asking me first! |
| Jos sattuu tännepäin tulemaan, niin ilmoitelkaa. -llmoitetaan. | If you see him, could you inform us so we can stop looking for him? Yeah, we'll let you know. |
