• Rhymes: -utɑ
• Syllabification^(key): tu‧ta

Usage notes

Only used in first infinitive (tuta, tutakseen), passive present indicative (tutaan) and rarely in instructive of second active infinitive (tutaen). The passive present participle (tuttava) as a noun meaning "acquaintance", and the passive past participle (tuttu) is in modern usage viewed either as another noun meaning "acquaintance" or an adjective meaning "familiar". It is also still common in phrases like saada tuta. All other uses are obsolete.

Synonyms

• (to feel): tuntea
• (to experience): kokea
