Wiktionary

(demonstrative) it (demonstrative) that (when the speaker does not point at the thing, either physically or mentally) (colloquial and dialectal) he, she (colloquial) the (as a definite article; see the usage notes below) Show more arrow right Due to the influence of Germanic languages, and nowadays especially to that of English, se may often be used as a kind of definite article in colloquial Finnish, though in standard Finnish it is ungrammatical, where word order expresses whether something is definite or indefinite. (Compare the usage of yksi.) (standard) Mies tuli luokseni. → (colloquial) Se mies tuli mun luokse.The man came to me.(standard) Luokseni tuli mies. → (colloquial) Yks mies tuli mun luokse.A man came to me. Show more arrow right From Proto-Finnic se, from Proto-Uralic śe. For plural forms, see etymology of ne. The oblique stem si- is seen in some forms and is also found in other Finnic languages, such as the following cognates of the partitive singular sitä: Karelian sitä, Livvi sittäh, Veps sidä, Votic sitä. This is possibly a remnant of the original expected form *si (due to final e > i) which was reversed in some forms, possibly as influence from the plural ne. The stem sii- seen in internal locative case forms may have been generalized from the plural forms as a means to distinguish from partitive/essive sitä, sinä; expected internal locative cases sissä, sistä may have been avoided as a dissimilation. Compare Veps siš (inessive singular of se). Show more arrow right
