Estonian

1. Da-infinitive of olema.

Finnish

(index ol)

Etymology

From several different roots.

• The normal forms in ol- derive from Proto-Finnic *oldak, from Proto-Uralic *wole-. Cognates include Estonian olema, Hungarian volt.
  • The forms on and ovat are probably from the same root as oma (and possibly olla, if a frequentative derivation of that root). Cognates are found in Karelian on, Livonian um, Veps om, Votic on, Hungarian van, Võro om/um and ommaq/ummaq.
    • ovat further likely has the standard 3rd person plural -vat in the ending, but could originate from earlier *omat, with the plural suffix *-t.
• The potential forms in lie- derive from Proto-Finnic *leedäk, from Proto-Uralic *le- (“to become”). Cognate with Karelian lienöy, Livonian l?dõ, Veps linda, Hungarian lenni/legyek, Northern Sami leat.

• IPA^(key): /?ol???/, [?o?l??(?)]
• Rhymes: -ol??

   Synonyms: (to own) omistaa, (discouraged in most cases) omata

5. (intransitive, inessive + 3rd person singular + ~) to have, to possess (as a feature or capability, as opposed to simple possession; almost always for inanimate subjects)

6. (intransitive, ~ (olemassa)) to exist (the subject often indefinite = in partitive case -> verb in 3rd-pers. singular)

7. (intransitive) to behave, act (as if...) (when followed by a essive plural form of a present active participle with possessive suffix, or a subordinate clause beginning with (ikään,) kuin, requiring conditional mood)

8. (transitive, auxiliary) to have (a verb to build active present perfect tense and active past perfect tense, taking active past participle, ending -nut/-nyt (singular) or -neet (pl.))

    Synonym: leikkiä

Usage notes

• In the sense “to have” the verb olla is always in third person singular form and the person who has something is indicated with adessive case. Grammatically the thing owned is the subject-complement of the sentence:

• Same applies through all tenses, infinitives and participles (where they make sense), e.g.

• The meaning "there be" is rarely used without adverbials (such as those describing a location); it is more common to use olla olemassa in such cases.
• olla (+ vähällä) + infinitive = to almost/nearly (do something accidental, harmful, wrong or fateful).

• olla + essive plural form of an active present participle (-vina/-vinä) + possessive suffix = to be supposed to do, pretend to do, put on airs of doing, affect:

• olla + fifth infinitive + possessive suffix by person = to be about to do (when something happens preventing it):

• olla määrä (“to be to, to be due to”)

• genitive + 3rd-pers. singular + pakko + infinitive = to must, have to, be forced to:

• genitive + olisi (conditional) parasta + infinitive = had better + infinitive:

• olla + long first infinitive = to be to do something (often implying that one is resigning to fate)
  • (interjection): olkoon menneeksi (“(okay,...) why not, go ahead, (colloquial) what the hell”)
• olkoonkin(, että...) (“never mind (that...)”)
• olla kunnossa (“to be in shape; to be in order”)

  If used without an adjective, olla kunnossa is a positive expression, and one might as well say olla hyvässä kunnossa (to be in good shape/order):
