When we use the word tuolla in Finnish, we're talking about something that's 'there,' a bit further away from both the speaker and the listener, but still visible. It's like pointing to something that isn't right next to you but also not super far in the distance. Think of it as a middle ground for 'there.' We often use it when we can clearly see the thing we're referring to, even if it's not within arm's reach. So, if you're pointing out a friend across the room, you might say Hän on tuolla, meaning 'She is there.'
