Auton osat – Car Parts – Finnish Vocabulary
July 6, 2021
This article contains a long list of car parts. If you’re interested in cars, this article might give you some fun vocabulary to study. Even if you aren’t into cars, knowing the words for blinker (vilkku), brake (jarru) and winter tires (talvirenkaat) are useful in everyday life.
In addition to words which are useful for everyone, this list also has more technical terms related to the chassis and the engine of a car. Keep in mind that I know nearly nothing about cars, so my pick of vocabulary is not exhaustive and can miss some vital words.

I’ve been browsing on-line greater than three hours these days, yet I by no means found any fascinating article like yours. It?¦s beautiful worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made excellent content material as you did, the internet can be much more helpful than ever before.
