خلفية ثقافية
Finns value 'tuttu' status highly. It often takes a shared activity (like a hobby or work) to bridge the gap from stranger to acquaintance. In the US, 'getting to know people' often involves rapid small talk, which might feel superficial to Finns. In Japan, becoming familiar often involves formal introductions and a clear understanding of social hierarchy. Socializing is very public and loud; 'tulla tutuksi' happens naturally in plazas and bars.
Use 'kanssa'
Always remember that 'tulla tutuksi' needs 'kanssa' + genitive. It's a package deal!
Not for objects
Don't use this for your new phone or a book. Use 'tutustua' for those.
