意思
Describing a long distance.
文化背景
Finns have a high tolerance for distance. A 'short walk' might be 2 kilometers, and a 'nearby' neighbor might be 500 meters away. In the north, distance is measured in time rather than kilometers because of snow and winding roads. In cities like Helsinki, 'kaukana' is used for anything outside the main tram network. The 'Finnish arm's length' is a real concept. Being 'kaukana' from others in public is a sign of respect for their privacy.
The 'From' Rule
Always remember to use the -lta/-ltä or -sta/-stä ending on the place you are far FROM.
Motion vs. State
Don't use 'kaukana' if you are moving. If you are driving away, you are going 'kauas'.
