معنی
The shop is closed.
زمینه فرهنگی
Opening hours (aukioloajat) are very important. On 'Arkipyhä' (mid-week holidays), almost everything is kiinni. The 'Kiinni' sign is often a simple piece of cardboard. Finns value directness over fancy signage. During Juhannus (Midsummer), cities become ghost towns because everything is kiinni and everyone is at their summer cottage. In Finnish schools, 'välitunti' (recess) ends when the doors are 'kiinni' and students must be in class.
Check the sign
If you see a red sign, it usually says 'KIINNI'. Green is 'AUKI'.
Don't say 'Olen suljettu'
It makes you sound like a building. Say 'Olen varattu' or 'Olen kiinni töissä'.
