뜻
Greeting someone after they have returned.
문화적 배경
Returning from the four-week summer holiday in August is a major event. Saying 'Tervetuloa takaisin' is essential for maintaining good office relations. If someone has been away for a long time, welcoming them back often includes an invitation to sauna. It's the ultimate 'welcome back' gesture. Finns often 'disappear' to their cottages. Returning to the city is seen as a return to 'civilization' and routine. The greeting is usually brief. Finns don't typically engage in long, flowery welcoming ceremonies; a sincere 'Tervetuloa takaisin' is enough.
