Just like
laatikko,
kappale is a word with many meanings. You can check it out from
Kielitoimiston sanakirja, but I'd say that these are the most common meanings:
A piece of music
A part of a text
- Missä kappaleessa me ollaan? - In which paragraph are we?
- Voitko lukea ensimmäisen kappaleen? - Can you read the first paragraph, please?
- A chapter is usually kappale in a school text book, and luku in a novel.
An object, a copy of something
- Tämä on ylimääräinen kappale. - This is an extra piece.
- Kuinka monta kappaletta sinä tarvitset? - How many do you need?
