Hei! @8:30 is there a way to say this with the word 'kanssa'? Would "Minun veli on kultainennoutaka kanssa" be correct?

[@learnfinnishwithfinkingcap]

"Kans" is short for "kanssa", so if that's what you were wondering then you could say "Mun veljellä on kultainennoutaja kanssa". Depends on the dialect which one you'd use. I would use "kans". Does that answer your question?

[@TuomasLeone]

@@learnfinnishwithfinkingcap Yes it does! Of course I forgot I needed to use the to have construction even that was the entire point of the lesson...🤦🏼 Kiitos!

Moi, kiitos kommentista ja kysymyksestä. I'm planning on offering speaking practice (on Zoom) in small groups this summer. I'll be notifying my followers when I've figured out times and dates! 🙂
