意思
Referring to the subject of a discussion.
文化背景
Finns value 'asia-keskeisyys' (matter-of-factness). Using 'olla kyse' helps you sound professional and direct, which is highly respected in Finnish society. Estonian has a very similar phrase 'tegu on', but Finnish learners often confuse the two. In Finland, 'olla kyse' is the primary way to define a topic. Finland-Swedes often use the Swedish equivalent 'det handlar om', which has influenced the Finnish usage to be very broad and versatile. In international Finnish companies, 'olla kyse' is the standard way to translate 'the bottom line is...' or 'the core issue is...'.
The 'About' Rule
Whenever you want to say 'It's about...', check if you are talking about a problem or a fact. If yes, use 'Kyse on...'
Case Alert!
Don't forget the -sta/-stä ending. Without it, the sentence sounds broken to a native ear.

12 个问题Yes, but it means the situation concerns them. 'Kyse on sinusta' means 'It's about you (the issue is you)'.
'Kyse' is more idiomatic for 'the matter', while 'kysymys' literally means 'a question'.
It is neutral. You can use it with your boss or your best friend.
Because the phrase 'olla kyse' governs the elative case, and 'mistä' is the elative form of 'mikä'.
No, you should say 'Kyse on siitä, että...' (It is about the fact that...).
Yes, but it is rarely used outside of this specific phrase and its variations.
Use the past tense of olla: 'Mistä oli kyse?'
Usually no, unless the book is an investigative report about a specific issue.
In formal writing, yes. In very casual texting, you might see 'Mistä kyse?'.
The verb remains singular: 'Kyse on näistä asioista.'
In news and police reports, 'kyseessä' is very common. In daily speech, 'kyse' is more common.
No, never. Use 'noin' or 'suunnilleen' for that.
