- Lyödä is to hit.
- Työntää is to push. The sign on a door says työnnä (or vedä).
- Töniä is to push many times. Älä töni! is what children yell at each other.
- Tönäistä is to push once, kind of quickly.
- Töytäistä is what a car does to a person. Write Auto töytäisi in Google, and you'll find several articles about traffic accidents.

- Jäädä auton alle is literally to remain under the car, so a bit stronger than the previous expression.
