Can vaan replace tahansa in all of those sentences? For example could you say Sä voit valita minkä vaan kirjan?
I think so. To be clear, though, the word is vain, which then gets muddled in the spoken language. Strictly speaking, vaan is only used to compare.
Is JOKU the same? Can I say Joku voi tehdä tehdä sen? What is the difference?
Thanks. I like a lot your blog
