Asking for further information.
زمینه فرهنگی
Finns value 'listening space'. Asking 'Voitko kertoa lisää' is seen as a sign of high intelligence and empathy because you are not interrupting. In Finnish meetings, silence often means people are thinking. Using this phrase helps break the silence without being aggressive. People from Eastern Finland (Karelia) are traditionally more talkative. They might not need this prompt as much as Western Finns, but they will love the chance to talk more! Younger Finns are more influenced by English 'small talk' norms and use this phrase more frequently than the older generation.
The Power of the Conditional
Always use 'Voisitko' if you want to sound extra polite to a stranger.
Don't overdo it
If you ask this 10 times in a row, it might feel like an interrogation. Balance it with your own comments.
