In the sense “to have” the verb olla is always in third person singular form and the person who has something is indicated with adessive case. Grammatically the thing owned is the subject-complement of the sentence: minulla on ― I have

sinulla on ― you have

hänellä on ― he/she has

sillä on ― it has

meillä on ― we have

teillä on ― you have

heillä on ― they have

Lassilla on ― Lassi has

kaupungin

olisi

ollut ― I would not have had

minulla

rupeaa

olemaan ― I am beginning to have The meaning "there be" is rarely used without adverbials (such as those describing a location); it is more common to use olla olemassa in such cases.

olla (+ vähällä) + infinitive = to almost/nearly (do something accidental, harmful, wrong or fateful).

Olin (vähällä) kaatua lattialle. ― I almost fell on the floor.

olla + essive plural form of an active present participle (-vina/-vinä) + possessive suffix = to be supposed to do, pretend to do, put on airs of doing, affect:

Mikä

tämä on olevinaan? (speaker belittling the object in front of her/him) ― What is this supposed to be?

Olit

olevinasi

niin

täydellinen. ― You pretended to be so damn perfect.

olla + fifth infinitive + possessive suffix by person = to be about to do (when something happens preventing it):

genitive + 3rd-pers. singular + pakko + infinitive = to must, have to, be forced to:

lähteä

nyt. ― I have to leave now.

genitive + olisi (conditional) parasta + infinitive = had better + infinitive:

lähtee, jos on lähteäkseen. ― He'll leave if he is (fated) to leave.

(interjection): olkoon menneeksi (“(okay,...) why not, go ahead, (colloquial) what the hell”)

olkoonkin(, että...) (“never mind (that...)”)

olla

kunnossa (“to be in shape; to be in order”)

If used without an adjective, olla kunnossa is a positive expression, and one might as well say olla
