To be moving past something.
문화적 배경
Finns often use this phrase to avoid direct confrontation or commitment. If someone asks about a difficult project, saying it's 'menossa ohi' implies it's being handled without needing to give details. In Finnish nature culture, 'menossa ohi' is used with a sense of respect for the elements. You don't stop the storm; you observe it passing. Socially, 'menossa ohi' is a key phrase for navigating crowds. It's more common than 'väistätkö' (will you move), as it focuses on your own action of passing. In sports, especially cross-country skiing, 'menossa ohi' is a high-adrenaline phrase used by commentators to signal a change in lead.
