المعنى
Having a conversation about a topic.
خلفية ثقافية
Finns value 'asiallisuus' (matter-of-factness). Discussing a matter directly is seen as a sign of respect for the other person's time and intelligence. Silence during a discussion is not awkward; it is a sign that people are thinking deeply about the 'asia'. In Finnish meetings, 'keskustella asiasta' usually leads to a clear decision. Discussions without a goal are rare in professional settings. On Finnish forums, you will see 'Keskustelua asiasta' as a common thread title, often followed by very logical, bullet-pointed arguments.
Use the Passive for Politeness
Saying 'Asiasta täytyy keskustella' (The matter must be discussed) is often more polite than 'Sinun täytyy keskustella' (You must discuss).
Don't forget the -sta!
Without the '-sta' ending, the sentence will not make sense to a native speaker.
