Usage notes
This verb has been created as some kind of "perfect" equivalent of the verb expressing ownership or possession in some Indo-European languages, such as Swedish ha, English have, French avoir, Latin habere, Greek έÏ�Ï� etc. — however, this is widely considered as a "buzzword", the much more preferable way to express ownership is to use the structure "olla#Finnish|adessive + 3rd sg. of olla".
