意味
Heading to see someone.
文化的背景
When visiting someone's home, it is customary to take your shoes off at the door. If you are 'menossa vierailemaan', make sure your socks are clean and without holes! The 'kahvipöytä' (coffee table) is the center of any visit. If you are 'menossa vierailemaan', expect to be offered coffee and at least seven types of sweet treats in a traditional setting. Punctuality is key. If you say you are 'menossa vierailemaan' at 2 PM, you should arrive exactly at 2 PM. Arriving early is awkward, and arriving late is rude. Sauna is often part of a visit, especially at a summer cottage (mökki). If you are 'menossa vierailemaan mökille', bring your own towel just in case.
The 'Maan' Rule
Remember that any verb of motion (like mennä) followed by another verb requires the -maan form for the second verb.
Don't forget the 'luona'
When visiting people, always use 'luona'. Saying 'vierailla ystävää' is grammatically okay but sounds like a news report.
