意味
Heading to a celebration.
文化的背景
Graduation parties (valmistujaiset) are often 'open house' style. Guests arrive throughout the afternoon, and the phrase 'olla menossa' is used as people move between different houses. The 'Ylioppilaslakki' is a sacred object. If you are 'menossa juhlimaan', you might see people treating their white caps with great care, as they are only worn on specific days. It is customary to bring a single rose and a gift card or money when you are 'menossa juhlimaan valmistumista'. In Finland, this phrase is most heard on the first Saturday of June, which is the national graduation day for high schools.
The 'Go' Noun
Remember that 'menossa' is literally 'in the go'. It's a very useful pattern for any activity: 'olen menossa syömään' (I'm going to eat).
Partitive Alert
Don't forget the 'a' at the end of 'valmistumista'. Without it, the sentence sounds incomplete to a Finn.
