Se as definite article
This page says that "se" as a definite article never caught on in Finnish, but in my dialect and many others "se" is used as a definite article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.170.100.33 (talk) 07:26, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was just wondering the same; I don't speak Finnish natively, but I've definitely seen this phenomenon often, and it was confusing at first because it's not usually mentioned to learners of Finnish. It's also not mentioned in Colloquial Finnish (but one example sentence there has se ovi in what seems to be an example of this phenomenon, apparently not conscious because it's also used in the "literary Finnish" version of the example), only in Wiktionary. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 07:17, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

"uo" as "oo"?
I thought the reason as to why he wrote "uo" as "oo" was because at the time, southwestern Finnish dialects (incl. Turku area) didn't have the "uo" diphthong until later? Kapulakone (talk) 15:48, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
