معنی

Doing what one said they would do.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

A handshake in Finland is often considered as binding as a written contract. If you shake hands on a deal, you are expected to 'pitää lupauksesi' without question. In traditional Sami culture, promises regarding land and reindeer were oral and passed down. Keeping one's word was essential for survival in harsh Arctic conditions. Finns are known for 'under-promising and over-delivering'. They would rather not make a promise than risk not being able to keep it. The 'Vaalilupaus' (election promise) is a common topic of satire in Finland, as people are very critical of politicians who fail to keep them.

🎯

The Suffix Secret

If you forget the suffix, just use 'mun' (my) or 'sun' (your) before the word in spoken Finnish: 'Mä pidän mun lupauksen.'

⚠️

Don't say 'like'

Remember that 'Pidän lupauksesta' means you enjoy the idea of the promise, not that you are doing it!

Silence is Golden

In Finland, it's better to say nothing than to make a promise you aren't 100% sure you can keep.

Yes, but it might sound a bit formal. For small things, you can just say 'Tein sen' (I did it).

'Lupaus' is a promise (one-sided or personal), while 'sopimus' is a contract or agreement (two-sided).

Not really. In slang, people say 'Mä hoidan' (I'll handle it) or 'Sana' (Word).

You say 'Minä lupaan'.
