Sopia tapaaminen

To arrange a meeting

معنی

Setting a time to meet.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Finns value 'asia' (the matter at hand). A meeting is agreed upon to discuss 'asia'. Once the 'asia' is handled, the meeting is over. There is little fluff. In Sweden, 'sopia tapaaminen' often involves 'fika'. The meeting is as much about the social consensus as the work. In American culture, meetings are often 'set' or 'scheduled' quickly. In Finland, the 'sopia' (agreement) part is more emphasized as a mutual contract. In Japan, the process of 'sopia tapaaminen' (nemawashi) often happens before the actual meeting to ensure everyone is already in agreement.

🎯

The 'Sopii' Shortcut

If someone suggests a time, you can just say 'Sopii!' (It fits/Agreed!) to be quick and natural.

⚠️

Don't be late

Once you 'sovit tapaamisen', being even 5 minutes late without a text is considered quite rude in Finland.
