Need Help With A Translation

[jahasjahas]

I need to print out a very simple and clean statement in finnish saying "No junk Mail" .
Of course i can Google or ask my friends but anyway!
regards

"Ei mainoksia" or "Ei mainoksia tai ilmaisjakelua", depending on what you want. (Ilmaisjakelu = free newspapers.)

Interpreting your sign is, of course, up to the person delivering the junk mail. No amount of signs will stop pizza places from spamming you with their flyers - for that you need to wait behind the door and catch the flyer guy red-handed.

What about the english idea for (DO NOT PLACE ADVERTISING AND NEWSPAPERS IN MY MAIL).

That has to mean something, or is it too angry like a bear?

[cors187]

No ads or free distribution=Ei mainoksia tai ilmaisjakelua


ÄLÄ LAITA MAINONTA ja sanomalehtiä kiitos=DO NOT PLACE ADVERTISING AND NEWSPAPERS please
ÄLÄ LAITA mainontaa tai SANOMALEHDET kiitos=DO NOT PLACE ADVERTISING or NEWSPAPERS please

Are these abnormal?

[Pursuivant]

Abnormal? Not if you are Tarzan.

[Upphew]

ÄLÄ LAITA MAINONTA ja sanomalehtiä kiitos=DO NOT PLACE ADVERTISING AND NEWSPAPERS please
ÄLÄ LAITA mainontaa tai SANOMALEHDET kiitos=DO NOT PLACE ADVERTISING or NEWSPAPERS please

Are these abnormal?

Yup. They are abnormal. Mainonta = advertising, mainos = advertisement. The first being the act of producing the latter.
Newspaper = Hesari, Kaleva et.al. Stuff you subscribe and pay. Ilmaisjakelulehti = free newspaper.

No Advertisements or free papers=Ei mainoksia tai vapaa paperit

still defective?

No Advertisements or free papers=Ei mainoksia tai vapaa paperit

still defective?

free = vapaa
free = ilmainen
but vapaa != ilmainen

[Jukka Aho]

No Advertisements or free papers=Ei mainoksia tai vapaa paperit

still defective?

vapaa = free as a bird (probably not the intention you had in mind); also “unoccupied”, “vacant”
ilmainen = free as in “free of charge”, “gratis”
ilmais- = ilmainen as a prefix in compound words (all -nen words get this treatment)
jakelu = delivery, distribution (of unsolicited mail, in this case)
paperi = just “[a sheet of] paper” (office/toilet/etc.); only refers to the material a publication might be printed on, never to the publication itself

There are variants of the standard phrasing but they usually go like so:

Ei mainoksia eikä ilmaisjakeluita.
“No advertisements or free-of-charge-deliveries”

Ei mainoksia eikä ilmaisjakelua.
“No advertisements or free-of-charge-delivery”

So maybe the sign should be in Turkish

Couple of fake orders should remind them about following the rules...

Ofcourse when i play around with combos i get Quotation Request Form , but, playing with combos?Is that all Finnish is ?

[Pursuivant]

Yes, you chop it up into more understandable bits.

Kiinteistökortti is card for real estate, huoltokartta is maintenance map, so probably in the janitors closet there is a folder full of interesting stuff.

Many things which are written as spaced compounds in English are solid (non-spaced) compounds in Finnish.

If there’s a set string of two or more nouns — in their basic, dictionary form, the combined whole referring to a single thing, such as “milk carton” or “butter knife” — it is almost without exception written as a solid compound in Finnish (maitotölkki, voiveitsi.)
