How to use the Finnish words 'lisää' and 'enemmän'

Lisää is more, additionally. 
Enemmän is also more, but it's the comparative form of paljon, a lot.

Here's how to use them in sentences:

Lisää

• Saisinko lisää kahvia? - Could I have more coffee, please? (I already had some but I drank it and now I want more.)
• Ota lisää ruokaa. - Take more food. (Your plate is empty. Take more.)

Enemmän

• Saisinko enemmän kahvia? - Could I have more coffee, please? (You only gave me some and I'd like to have some more.)
• Ota enemmän ruokaa. - Take more food. (You took too little. Take more.)
