意思
High volume sound.
文化背景
In Finnish apartment culture, 'hiljaisuus' (silence) usually starts at 10 PM. Making a 'kova ääni' after this time can lead to a formal warning from the housing company. Finns are often perceived as quiet. A 'kova ääni' in a public space like a train is often seen as a sign of a tourist or someone who is 'humalassa' (drunk). In the sauna, a 'kova ääni' is generally discouraged. It is a place for quiet reflection, though low-volume conversation is fine. Nature is the ultimate place of silence. Finns go to their summer cottages (mökki) specifically to escape 'kova ääni' of the city.
The 'Hard' Rule
Whenever you want to say something is 'intense' in Finnish (loud, cold, fast, strong), try the word 'kova' first. It works 80% of the time!
Don't be 'Suuri'
Avoid saying 'suuri ääni'. It sounds like the sound has physical dimensions (like a 5-meter wide sound wave).

Volume in Public
If you are in a Finnish library or bus, keep your 'ääni' very 'hiljainen'. Finns value their personal auditory space.
Volume Buttons
On many Finnish devices, you might see '+' and '-' instead of words, but if you see text, 'Ääni' is the label for volume.
