When you're talking about something that happened before, like the last meeting or the previous time you did something, the Finnish word for that is edelliskerta. It's a combination of two words: 'edellinen' meaning previous, and 'kerta' meaning time or occasion. So, literally, it means 'previous time.' You can use it in sentences like, "What happened the previous time?" or "I remember the last occurrence." It's a really useful word for talking about past events.
When you're talking about something that happened before, like the last meeting or the previous time you did something, the Finnish word you'll use is edelliskerta. Think of it as a way to refer back to a past event without having to be too specific about the exact date or time. It's a handy word to know when you're recalling something that already occurred. So, if you want to say 'last time,' edelliskerta is your word.
When you're referring to something that happened on a prior occasion, edelliskerta is the word you need. It literally means 'previous time.' Think of it as a handy way to look back at an earlier event or instance.
It's useful in many contexts, from discussing a past meeting to remembering a previous attempt at something. You'll often hear it when people are comparing what happened then to what's happening now.
When you're referring to something that happened or was done the time before the current one, you use edelliskerta. It's a straightforward way to indicate the immediately preceding instance of an event or action. This word is very common in everyday Finnish to talk about things like 'the last meeting' or 'the previous attempt'.
For example, if you want to say 'last time, we discussed...', you'd use edelliskerralla keskustelimme.... It helps to keep track of sequential events without needing more complex phrasing.
Let's break down the Finnish word "edelliskerta." This is a compound word, which means it's made up of two smaller words. "Edellinen" means previous or foregoing, and "kerta" means time or occasion. So, when you put them together, "edelliskerta" literally translates to "previous time" or "last occasion." It's used to refer to an event or a point in time that happened directly before the current moment or the moment being discussed.
DEFINITION
Previous time or last occurrence.
You'll hear and see "edelliskerta" used frequently in everyday Finnish conversations and writing. It's a very practical word. Think about when you might say "last time" in English – that's often when you'd use "edelliskerta" in Finnish. It's a handy way to refer back to something that happened recently or on a prior occasion.
§ When to use "edelliskerta"
This word is useful in many contexts. For example, if you're talking about a recurring event, like a meeting or a class, and you want to refer to the one that just passed, "edelliskerta" is perfect. It's concise and clear. It removes any ambiguity about which "time" you're talking about.
En edelliskerta ehtinyt. (I didn't make it last time.)
Here, "edelliskerta" functions almost like an adverbial phrase, telling us when something happened. It’s direct and avoids more complex sentence structures.
Mitä tapahtui edelliskerralla? (What happened on the previous occasion/last time?)
Notice the ending here. "Edelliskerralla" uses the adessive case (-lla/-llä) because it answers the question "where/when?" in a temporal sense, referring to a specific point in time. This is a common grammatical pattern in Finnish when discussing times or occasions.
It's important to understand that "edelliskerta" implies the immediate preceding time. If you want to talk about a time further in the past, you might use other expressions like "aikaisemmin" (earlier) or specify the exact date or event. But for referring to the most recent past occasion, "edelliskerta" is your go-to word.
§ Practical uses in conversation
Imagine you're catching up with a friend about a shared activity:
"Muistatko, mitä me puhuimme edelliskerralla?" (Do you remember what we talked about last time?)
"Minusta tuntuu, että tämä oli helpompaa edelliskerta." (I feel like this was easier last time.)
In these examples, "edelliskerta" helps anchor the conversation to a specific, recently passed moment without needing to reiterate all the details. It's efficient and natural. Mastering its use will make your Finnish sound more fluent and authentic.
So, next time you need to refer to something that happened on the most recent occasion, reach for "edelliskerta." It's a fundamental word for keeping track of time and events in Finnish.
§ What 'edelliskerta' means
Finnish Word
edelliskerta (noun)
Definition
Previous time or last occurrence.
You use 'edelliskerta' when you are talking about something that happened before the current time, or the time just before now. It's a handy word for referring to past events or discussions without being too specific about the exact date or time.
§ Basic use of 'edelliskerta'
The word 'edelliskerta' is a compound word made of 'edellinen' (previous) and 'kerta' (time/occasion). This helps you understand its meaning directly. It's a noun, so it will decline like other Finnish nouns.
Mitä teimme edelliskerralla?
Translation Hint
What did we do last time?
Edelliskerta oli hauska.
Translation Hint
The last time was fun.
§ Using 'edelliskerta' with prepositions (more accurately, postpositions and cases)
In Finnish, instead of prepositions, we often use different noun cases or postpositions. When talking about 'edelliskerta', you'll most commonly see it in certain cases, particularly the adessive case (-lla/llä) to indicate 'on the previous occasion' or 'at the last time'.
Adessive case (-lla/llä): This is very common. It means 'on the previous time' or 'at the last time'.
Unohdin sen edelliskerralla.
Translation Hint
I forgot it last time.
Keskustelimme siitä edelliskerralla.
Translation Hint
We discussed it last time.
Genitive case (-n): When 'edelliskerta' acts as a possessor or describes something related to the previous time.
Edelliskerran muistiinpanot ovat tärkeitä.
Translation Hint
The previous time's notes are important.
Here, 'edelliskerran' functions like 'of the previous time' to specify which notes are important.
§ Common phrases with 'edelliskerta'
You'll often hear 'edelliskerta' in discussions about meetings, lessons, or any recurring events. Here are some typical ways it's used:
Viime edelliskerta / Juuri edelliskerta: While 'edelliskerta' already means 'previous time', you might occasionally hear 'viime edelliskerta' (literally 'last previous time') or 'juuri edelliskerta' (just the previous time) for extra emphasis, though 'edelliskerta' on its own is usually enough.
Muistatko mitä teimme edelliskerralla tunnilla?
Translation Hint
Do you remember what we did last time in class?
En päässyt paikalle edelliskerralla.
Translation Hint
I couldn't make it last time.
§ 'Edelliskerta' vs. 'viime kerta'
You might also encounter 'viime kerta', which also means 'last time'. While they are often interchangeable, there's a subtle difference:
Edelliskerta: Focuses on the immediate preceding occurrence in a sequence. Think 'the one directly before this'.
Viime kerta: Can be more general, simply meaning 'the most recent time' without necessarily implying a sequence. It can also refer to the absolute last time something happened, possibly long ago.
Edelliskerralla puhuimme säästä.
Translation Hint
Last time (the time before this one) we talked about the weather.
Näin hänet viime kerralla vuosi sitten.
Translation Hint
I saw him last time a year ago.
In the second example, 'viime kerta' refers to a specific time far in the past, not necessarily the immediately preceding instance in a series of events.
§ Summary of 'edelliskerta'
'Edelliskerta' is a fundamental word for discussing past occurrences in Finnish. Pay attention to the case endings, especially the adessive (-lla/llä), as it's the most common way to use it in sentences. By understanding its core meaning and common usage, you'll be able to integrate it naturally into your Finnish conversations.

It's a compound word, formed from 'edellinen' (previous) and 'kerta' (time/occurrence). This word is often used in situations where you need to reference an earlier event, meeting, or lesson.
§ 'Edelliskerta' in work and meetings
In a work environment, 'edelliskerta' is a common term. You'll hear it in meetings, presentations, and general discussions when people are referring to a prior discussion or decision. It helps to keep track of ongoing projects and tasks.
Käytiin tämä asia läpi jo edelliskerralla.
Translation hint: We went through this matter already *the previous time*.
Muistathan, mitä sovimme edelliskerralla?
Translation hint: Do you remember what we agreed *last time*?
§ 'Edelliskerta' in school and studies
In academic settings, 'edelliskerta' is invaluable. Teachers use it to remind students about previous lessons, and students use it to refer to past lectures or assignments. It's a natural way to maintain continuity in learning.
Kuten opimme edelliskerralla...
Translation hint: As we learned *last time*...
Tehtävästä oli puhetta jo Translation hint: The assignment was already discussed *the previous time*.
§ 'Edelliskerta' in news and everyday talk
Even in news reports or general conversations, 'edelliskerta' can pop up. It helps to give context by referencing a past event, election, or public statement. It's a simple way to indicate that information has been covered before.
Puolue menestyi heikommin kuin edelliskerralla.
Translation hint: The party performed worse than *the previous time*.
Hän oli myös paikalla edelliskerralla.
Translation hint: He was also present *last time*.
§ Synonyms and related words
While 'edelliskerta' is precise, you might encounter other ways to express similar ideas. Here are a few:
Viime kerralla: This literally means 'last time' and is very similar in meaning and usage to 'edelliskerralla'. Often interchangeable.
Mitä päätettiin viime kerralla?
Translation hint: What was decided *last time*?
Aiemmin: This is a general adverb meaning 'earlier' or 'previously'. It's more flexible than 'edelliskerta' as it doesn't specifically refer to an 'occasion'.
Keskustelimme tästä jo aiemmin.
Translation hint: We already discussed this *earlier*.
Edellä mainittu: This means 'aforementioned' or 'mentioned above' and is used in more formal written contexts to refer to something previously stated.
By understanding 'edelliskerta' and its related terms, you'll be able to navigate conversations and texts more smoothly, always knowing how to refer back to past events in Finnish. Keep practicing, and it will become second nature!
§ Don't Confuse with General 'Last Time'
Many learners, especially at the B1 and B2 levels, tend to overgeneralize the use of 'edelliskerta'. While it does mean 'previous time' or 'last occurrence', it's specifically about a *specific* previous instance of an event or action. It's not a generic way to say 'the last time something happened ever'.
§ Using 'Viime kerta' Instead of 'Edelliskerta'
This is a very common mistake. 'Viime kerta' means 'the last time' in a more general sense, often implying a finality or the absolute last time something happened. 'Edelliskerta' refers to the *preceding* occasion, implying that there might be more occurrences. For example, if you're discussing a series of meetings, 'edelliskerta' would be the meeting before the current one. 'Viime kerta' might be the very last meeting in the series.
Example 1: Correct Use of Edelliskerta
Mitä päätettiin edelliskerralla? (What was decided the previous time/last occurrence? - Implies an ongoing series.)
Example 2: Correct Use of Viime Kerta
Tämä on viime kerta, kun teen tämän. (This is the last time I'm doing this. - Implies finality.)
Unohdin sen edelliskerralla. (I forgot it the previous time.)
En nähnyt häntä edelliskerralla, kun kävimme. (I didn't see her the previous time when we visited.)
§ Incorrect Cases/Declensions
As a noun, 'edelliskerta' declines like other 'kerta' words. A common error is using it without the correct case ending, especially when referring to 'at the previous time' or 'on the previous occasion'. You almost always need a locative case (like the adessive '-lla'/-llä' or inessive '-ssa'/-ssä').
Incorrect: 'Edelliskerta olin siellä.'
Correct: 'Edelliskerralla olin siellä.' (At the previous time, I was there.)
Milloin edelliskerralla puhuimme? (When did we speak the previous time?)
The most common form you will encounter and use is 'edelliskerralla' (on the previous occasion/at the previous time). However, depending on the context, other cases are possible, for instance:
Genitive
Hän muisti edelliskerran puheen. (He remembered the speech of the previous time.)
Partitive
Tämä on parempi kuin edelliskertaa. (This is better than the previous time.)
§ Overlooking Context for Implied Repetition
'Edelliskerta' naturally implies that the event has happened before and is likely to happen again, or is part of a series. If there's no such implication, 'edelliskerta' might sound unnatural. For example, if you're talking about a one-off event that happened in the past and won't repeat, you would typically use 'viimeksi' (last time) or simply a past tense verb with a time expression.
En muista edelliskertaa, kun näin sinut. (I don't remember the previous time I saw you. - Implies seeing you more than once.)
§ Edelliskerta: The Previous Time
You've learned that edelliskerta means 'previous time' or 'last occurrence'. It's a useful word for talking about things that happened right before now, or before the current event you're discussing. Think of it as directly preceding the present moment or the moment of focus.
DEFINITION
Previous time or last occurrence. Focuses on the immediate past.
En muista, mitä edelliskerralla
(I don't remember what we did last time / the previous time.)
§ Alternatives to 'edelliskerta'
Finnish has several ways to talk about past events. Let's look at some common alternatives and when to use them instead of edelliskerta.
Viime kerta (last time)
Ennen (before)
Aikaisemmin (earlier)
Silloin (then, at that time)
§ Edelliskerta vs. Viime kerta
Both edelliskerta and viime kerta can often be translated as 'last time' in English, but there's a subtle difference in nuance.
DEFINITION
Viime kerta literally means 'last time'. It can refer to the final instance of something or the most recent time something occurred in a general sense.
Tämä on viimeinen kerta, kun teen tämän!
(This is the last time I'm doing this!) - Here, viimeinen kerta (the superlative form) clearly indicates finality.
Milloin olit täällä viimeksi?
(When were you here last?) - The adverb viimeksi is very common for 'last time' in a general sense.
§ Ennen: Before
Ennen is a very versatile word meaning 'before'. It can be used as an adverb or a postposition.
DEFINITION
'Before' - refers to a point in time or an event preceding another.
Tulin kotiin ennen
(I came home before you.)
Syö ennen kuin lähdet.
(Eat before you leave.)
§ Aikaisemmin: Earlier
Aikaisemmin is an adverb meaning 'earlier'. It's related to the word aika (time).
DEFINITION
'Earlier' - refers to an unspecified time in the past, preceding the present moment.
Olen nähnyt hänet aikaisemmin.
(I have seen him earlier / before.)
§ Silloin: Then, At That Time
Silloin is an adverb meaning 'then' or 'at that time'. It refers to a specific, often previously mentioned, point or period in the past.
DEFINITION
'Then' or 'at that time' - refers to a specific, contextually understood point in the past.
Muistatko sen päivän? Silloin
(Do you remember that day? It was really hot then / at that time.)
§ Summary: When to Use Which
To recap:
Edelliskerta: The occurrence immediately before the current one in a sequence of repeated events.
Viime kerta / Viimeksi: The most recent occurrence in a general sense, or the final occurrence.
Ennen: Generally 'before' a point in time or an event.
Aikaisemmin: 'Earlier', a general reference to a past time.
Silloin: 'Then' or 'at that time', referring to a specific, understood past moment.
Keep practicing these words in context. The more you use them, the more natural they'll feel!

edelliskertavsviimeksi
Often translated as 'last time', which makes it very close to 'edelliskerta', but there's a nuance in usage.
'Viimeksi' emphasizes the finality or most recent occurrence of something, while 'edelliskerta' can refer to any previous instance, not necessarily the most recent one if there have been others since.
Milloin kävit viimeksi täällä? (When did you last visit here?)
edelliskertavsedellinen
This is an adjective meaning 'previous' or 'former', and can be used with nouns to describe a previous item, but not an event in the same way 'edelliskerta' does.
'Edellinen' modifies a noun (e.g., 'edellinen päivä' - previous day). 'Edelliskerta' is a standalone noun for a previous instance.
Edellinen omistaja oli mukava. (The previous owner was nice.)
edelliskertavsennen
A general preposition or adverb meaning 'before'. It indicates a time prior to something else, without specifying an 'occurrence'.
'Ennen' is broad; 'edelliskerta' is specific to a previous event. You wouldn't say 'ennen kerta' to mean 'previous time'.
Tulen ennen sinua. (I'll come before you.)

نحوه استفاده
The Finnish word edelliskerta is a compound word formed from edellinen (previous) and kerta (time/occasion). It literally means 'previous time' or 'last occasion'. You'll often see it used to refer to a specific prior event or instance in a series. For example, if you're talking about a meeting, 'edelliskerta' would refer to the last meeting that happened before the current one.
اشتباهات رایج
A common mistake is confusing edelliskerta with more general terms like ennen (before) or aikaisemmin (earlier). While related, edelliskerta specifically refers to a previous instance or occurrence. Another mistake is trying to use it for an unspecified 'previous time' without a clear context of recurring events. For example, you wouldn't typically say 'edelliskerta, kun kävin kaupassa' (the previous time I went to the store) if you're just talking about a single, non-recurring event. You'd likely use viimeksi (last time) or simply state when you went.

سوالات متداول
10 سوال
Edelliskerta means 'previous time' or 'last occurrence.' You can use it to refer to a past instance of something. For example, 'Edelliskerralla unohdin avaimeni' means 'Last time, I forgot my keys.'
Yes, edelliskerta is quite common in everyday Finnish, especially when discussing past events or comparing something to a previous occasion. It's a useful word to know.
While both refer to a past occasion, there's a subtle difference. Edelliskerta specifically means the previous time something happened in a sequence, while 'viime kerta' can more broadly mean 'the last time' it ever happened, or simply 'the last time' in a general sense. Often, they can be used interchangeably, but 'edelliskerta' emphasizes the immediate preceding event.
You'll often hear 'edelliskerralla' (on the previous occasion), 'edelliskerrasta' (from the previous occasion), or 'edelliskerran' (of the previous occasion). For example, 'Tämä oli parempi kuin edelliskerralla' (This was better than last time).
Like other Finnish nouns, edelliskerta declines according to case. For example:
Nominative: edelliskerta (previous time)
Partitive: edelliskertaa (a previous time)
Genitive: edelliskerran (of the previous time)
Illative: edelliskertaan (to the previous time)
Adessive: edelliskerralla (on the previous time)
The adessive case ('edelliskerralla') is very common.
As mentioned, 'viime kerta' can sometimes be a synonym, especially in less precise contexts. 'Aiempi kerta' (earlier time) is also close in meaning, but edelliskerta specifically points to the immediately preceding instance.
Edelliskerta (previous time) is the direct opposite of 'seuraava kerta' (next time). They are often used in contrast to each other when discussing a series of events.
It usually refers to a general past event or occasion, rather than a specific date. If you need to specify a date, you would use the date directly. 'Edelliskerta' is more about the sequence of events.
Certainly! 'Kokous oli lyhyempi kuin edelliskerralla.' (The meeting was shorter than last time.) Or, 'Muistatko vielä edelliskerran vierailun?' (Do you still remember the previous visit?)
The B2 CEFR level indicates that it's a word used by independent users of Finnish. While not basic, it's very practical and understandable. Mastering it will definitely enhance your ability to discuss past events fluently.

Se oli paljon parempi kuin ___ kerta. (It was much better than the ___ time.)
درسته!نه دقیقاً. پاسخ صحیح: edellinen
To convey 'previous time' or 'last occurrence' in this context, 'edellinen' (previous) is the most natural fit. 'Viimeinen' means 'last' but often implies the final one, not necessarily the one immediately preceding. 'Seuraava' means 'next', and 'aikaisempi' means 'earlier' or 'former' but isn't as direct here.

درسته!نه دقیقاً. پاسخ صحیح: edellisellä

fill blank
B1

درسته!نه دقیقاً. پاسخ صحیح: edelliskerralla
'Edelliskerralla' directly translates to 'on the previous time' or 'on the last occasion', making it the most accurate choice. 'Seuraavalla kerralla' means 'on the next time', 'ensi kerralla' means 'next time', and 'nyt' means 'now'.
