The South Ostrobothnian declination of the verb olla often fuses the pronoun together with the verb... and there are a couple of alternative ways of doing this depending on what you regard as being the “original”, intended phrasing:

1st p. sg.
mä olen → molen
mä oon → moon
minä oon → minoon

2nd p. sg.
sä olet → solet
sä oot → soot
sinä oot → sinoot

3rd p. sg.
se on → son

1st p. pl.
me olemme → molemme
me ollahan → mollahan
me oomme → moomme
me oomma → moomma

2nd p. pl.
te olette → tolette
te ootte → tootte
te ootta → tootta

3rd p. pl.
ne ovat → novat
ne on → non

4rd p. / “passive”
ollahan

But of course, this is a feature of a highly localized, regional dialect. Knowing about such things is useful for understanding those who come from there and continue to speak the dialect, instead of toning it down – certain Jorma Panula would immediately spring into mind –, but probably not beneficial to study yourself unless you’re going to live in the area... and assimilate. ;)

I recently discussed the South Ostrobothnian dialect in this post... also providing links to some examples.

Well, the complete verb to be in the present tense in Southern Ostrobothnian would actually be as follows:

m'oon oikias
s'oot vääräs
s'on vääräs
m'oomma oikias
t'ootta vääräs
n'on vääräs

We are the exception in Finland, the only province where people have natural and healthy self-confidence!

tuu, mennää paneen

I speak little Finnish, but does it mean: Come, we're going to f*?

more like "come, lets go f*", but yeah... essentials

[Pursuivant]

m'oon oikias
s'oot vääräs
