意味
Something very impressive.
文化的背景
The use of superlatives like 'huikee' has increased significantly in the last 20 years, reflecting a more globalized and expressive social culture. Sports commentators are the primary 'spreaders' of this word. It is almost mandatory to use 'huikea' or 'huikee' when a Finnish athlete does well. In the 'Slush' (tech conference) environment, 'huikee' is used to describe everything from a pitch to a cup of coffee. It signals 'pöhinä' (buzz). The word is heavily used in marketing the Northern Lights and Arctic experiences to evoke a sense of awe.
The 'ee' rule
If you want to sound casual in Finnish, try changing '-ea' endings to '-ee'. It works for 'huikee', 'korkee', and 'makee'!
Don't overdo it
If everything is 'huikee', then nothing is. Save it for things that are truly 8/10 or higher on the excitement scale.
