Hei
Voitteko auttaa minua? Just wondering if this is the correct interpretation of the following phrase as I can't find another base word for tänne.
Tänne kuuluu oikein hyvää = Today doing really well.
and I just wanted to say I have been lurking for a while and this board is a fabulous resource. Thanks to everyone for all the information I have gleaned so far, I hope to reciprocate one day (perhaps in the very distant future at this rate
).
Kiitoksia paljon.
Chris

Literally
"Here our tidings are very good."
so ' We're doing fine' etc.
tänne = to here
kuuluu = we hear
oikein = very (also 'correct', but here very)
hyvää = good (stuff)
Cheers, Hank W.
