kysyntä
kysyntä 30 सेकंड में
- Kysyntä is the Finnish word for 'demand', essential for economic and business discussions.
- It comes from the verb 'kysyä' (to ask) and undergoes consonant gradation (nt -> nn).
- It is usually paired with 'tarjonta' (supply) and takes the partitive case in existential sentences.
- Commonly used to describe market trends, job opportunities, and the popularity of services.
The Finnish word kysyntä is a fundamental noun that every intermediate learner must master, especially if they intend to navigate professional, academic, or news-related environments in Finland. At its core, kysyntä translates to 'demand' in English. It is derived from the verb kysyä, which means 'to ask'. Conceptually, demand is the collective act of 'asking for' a product, service, or resource. This linguistic link makes the word intuitive once you understand that economic demand is essentially the market 'asking' for something to be provided.
- Economic Context
- In macroeconomics and microeconomics, kysyntä refers to the total quantity of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at various prices. It is almost always paired with tarjonta (supply) to describe market mechanics.
- Social Popularity
- Outside of strict economics, the word is used to describe the popularity or requirement for specific skills, people, or ideas. For example, if a certain type of programmer is highly sought after, you would say there is high kysyntä for their expertise.
Sähköautojen kysyntä on kasvanut räjähdysmäisesti viime vuosina.
When using this word, it is vital to remember its grammatical behavior. It is a feminine-leaning abstract noun in English, but in Finnish, it follows the standard rules for nouns ending in -ntä. This means it undergoes consonant gradation. The 'nt' cluster changes to 'nn' in the genitive case (kysynnän) and other closed-syllable cases. This is a common stumbling block for learners who forget to weaken the consonant when adding endings.
In Finnish culture, discussing the labor market (työmarkkinat) often involves this word. You will hear it in news segments regarding housing prices, energy costs, and the availability of healthcare services. It is a 'serious' word but not an overly formal one; it is perfectly appropriate in both a boardroom and a casual conversation about why butter is so expensive lately.
Onko tälle palvelulle todella kysyntää?
Finally, notice the case usage in the example above. We use the partitive case kysyntää because we are talking about the existence of an unspecified amount of demand in a question. This is a classic B1-level grammar point: existential sentences and questions of quantity require the partitive.
Using kysyntä correctly requires an understanding of Finnish valency—which cases the word 'attracts' or requires in its neighbors. Most importantly, the thing that is being demanded is usually expressed in the genitive case (possessive) before the word kysyntä, or using the prepositional structure kohtaan (towards).
- Genitive + Kysyntä
- This is the most common pattern. For example: Asuntojen kysyntä (Demand for apartments). Here, 'asuntojen' is the genitive plural of 'asunto' (apartment).
- Kysyntä + Allative (-lle)
- You can also say there is demand for something using the -lle ending. Tuotteelle on kysyntää (There is demand for the product).
Työvoiman kysyntä laskee yleensä taantuman aikana.
Verbs that frequently accompany kysyntä include kasvaa (to grow), lisääntyä (to increase), vähentyä (to decrease), and vastata (to meet/respond to). If you want to say 'to meet the demand', you use the verb vastata combined with the allative case: vastata kysyntään.
When describing the intensity of demand, Finns use adjectives like kova (hard/strong), suuri (great/large), or vähäinen (minor/low). A very common phrase in job advertisements or business news is kova kysyntä, indicating a very competitive or high-interest market.
Meidän on vaikea vastata tähän kovaan kysyntään.
If you turn on the Finnish national broadcaster YLE and listen to the 'Talousuutiset' (Economic News), you will hear kysyntä within the first five minutes. It is the bread and butter of financial reporting. However, its usage extends far beyond the stock market. You will hear it in everyday life when people discuss why something is sold out or why a service is booked for months.
- At the Grocery Store
- If a specific seasonal product like mämmi at Easter or simat at May Day runs out, the clerk might say: 'Kysyntä yllätti meidät' (The demand surprised us).
- In Job Interviews
- An interviewer might explain the role by saying: 'Alalla on tällä hetkellä valtava kysyntä osaajista' (There is currently a massive demand for experts in this field).
Uuden iPhonen kysyntä on ollut maltillista.
You also find this word in political debates. When discussing the 'kestävyysvaje' (sustainability gap) of the Finnish welfare state, politicians often talk about the palveluiden kysyntä (demand for services) increasing as the population ages. It is a key term for understanding Finnish social policy and the challenges of the 21st century.
The most common mistake English speakers make with kysyntä is a grammatical one: failing to apply consonant gradation. Because the word ends in -ntä, it follows the 'nt -> nn' rule. Many students incorrectly say *kysyntän instead of the correct kysynnän.
- Wrong Case Choice
- Confusing the partitive and nominative. In the sentence 'There is demand', you must use partitive: 'On kysyntää'. Using 'On kysyntä' sounds like you are defining the word rather than stating its existence.
- Confusing with 'Pyyntö'
- 'Pyyntö' means a 'request' (like asking a favor). 'Kysyntä' is the market force. You wouldn't say there is a 'pyyntö' for apples unless someone specifically asked you to bring them some.
Väärin: Tuotteen kysyntä on laskenut. Oikein: Tuotteen kysyntä on laskenut. (Wait, nominative is correct here as a subject!)
Another mistake is using the wrong prepositional logic. In English, we say 'demand FOR something'. In Finnish, you usually put that 'something' in the genitive case BEFORE the word kysyntä. Translating 'for' literally as 'varten' is a major 'Finglish' error. Instead of 'Kysyntä varten maito', you must say Maidon kysyntä.
While kysyntä is the standard word for demand, several other words occupy nearby semantic space. Choosing the right one depends on whether you are talking about economic forces, personal needs, or sheer popularity.
- Tarve (Need)
- Use 'tarve' when you mean a necessity. 'Ruoan tarve' is the need for food to survive. 'Ruoan kysyntä' is the market demand for food products.
- Menekki (Saleability/Turnover)
- This word specifically refers to how well a product is selling. If a book has 'hyvä menekki', it is a bestseller. It is more concrete than 'kysyntä'.
- Suosio (Popularity)
- Use 'suosio' for people, bands, or trends. A politician has 'suosio', but a haircut might have 'kysyntä' at the barber shop.
Tällä tuotteella on hyvä menekki joulumarkkinoilla.
In a formal or academic context, you might also see vaatimus (requirement/demand). However, vaatimus is much more forceful—it's a demand like 'I demand an explanation!' (Vaadin selitystä!). Kysyntä is never used for personal demands or commands; it is strictly for the 'asking' of the market or a group.
How Formal Is It?
रोचक तथ्य
Because demand is literally 'the asking', it reflects a very direct way of thinking about economics—the market is simply a place where people ask for things.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल
10 सवालMostly, yes. In everyday Finnish, we talk about 'kysyntä' as a mass concept. However, in technical economics, you might hear 'erilaiset kysynnät' when referring to different types of demand functions, but this is rare.
'Tarve' means 'need' (necessity). 'Kysyntä' means 'demand' (market desire). You might need (tarve) a doctor, but if you can't afford one, there is no economic demand (kysyntä) in a private market.
Usually, you use the genitive case before the word: 'Asuntojen kysyntä' (Demand for apartments). Alternatively, you can use the allative case: 'Kysyntää asunnoille'.
This is due to consonant gradation. In Finnish, 'nt' changes to 'nn' when the syllable becomes closed (e.g., when adding the genitive '-n').
Yes, but it means they are sought-after professionally. 'Hänellä on kova kysyntä työmarkkinoilla' means he is in high demand as an employee.
It is a standard word used in news and business, but it's not 'stiff'. It's used in everyday conversation whenever discussing why things are popular or expensive.
It is demand-pull inflation, which happens when the total demand in the economy grows faster than the supply, causing prices to rise.
No. 'Kysyntä' is a noun. If you want to say 'I ask', use the verb: 'Minä kysyn'.
The most common opposite is 'tarjonta' (supply).
The most common way is 'vastata kysyntään' (literally: to answer into the demand).
