Some of the jo-words are nice and never change:
- jo - already
- joo - yes
- joka - every
- joka - which, that
- jos - if
- joskus - sometime, sometimes
- jopa - even
- joten - so
- jotta - so that
More Finnish words that start with jo:
- jojo - a yoyo
- johtaa - to lead, to conduct
- johtaja - a manager, a leader
- johto - a cord, management
- jokainen - everyone
- joka - which, that, who
- joki - a river
- jokin - something
- joku - someone (a person)
- jonnekin - to somewhere
- jonkinlainen - some kind
- jossain - somewhere
- jossitella - to hypothesize
- jostain - from somewhere
- joulu - christmas
- joustava - flexible
- joutua - to be forced somewhere
I have a separate post about joku, jokin and joka.
I'd say that the best way to practice is to read and listen to something that you like and pay attention to the jo-words. Learn expressions that are useful for you and don't worry about the crazy ones like joiksikuiksi.
Joku, jokin and joka in eleven cases, singular and plural:
JOKU (singular) | JOTKUT (plural) | JOKIN (singular) | JOTKIN (plural) | JOKA (singular) | JOTKA (plural) |
jonka | joidenkuiden | jonkin | joidenkin | jonka | joiden |
jota | joitakuita | jotakin | joitakin | jota | joita |
jossakussa | joissakuissa | jossakin | joissakin | jossa | joissa |
jostakusta | joistakuista | jostakin | joistakin | josta | joista |
johonkuhun | joihinkuihin | johonkin | joihinkin | johon | joihin |
jollakulla | joillakuilla | jollakin | joillakin | jolla | joilla |
joltakulta | joiltakuilta | joltakin | joiltakin | jolta | joilta |
jollekulle | joillekuille | jollekin | joillekin | jolle | joille |
jonakuna | joinakuina | jonakin | joinakin | jona | joina |
joksikuksi | joiksikuiksi | joksikin | joiksikin | joksi | joiksi |
There are also some alternative forms, so do check Wikisanakirja, if you want to know more.
Translation: If somebody somewhere sometime says something...
