In Finnish, predicate adjectives for abstract subjects or actions (like 'to sleep') take the partitive case. 'Tärkeää' is the partitive form.

Yes, but use the nominative: 'Olet tärkeä' (You are important).

Use 'tärkein' (nominative) or 'tärkeintä' (partitive). For example: 'Tämä on tärkeintä.'

It is the spoken/informal version of 'tärkeä' or 'tärkeää'. You will hear it everywhere in Helsinki!

'Tärkeä' means important, while 'arvokas' means valuable or expensive.
