Basque

Verb

joka

1. short stem of jokatu

Finnish

Etymology

• From the pronominal stem jo- + the suffix -ka/kä.

Pronoun

joka (stem jo-, see below)

1. (relative) who, which, that.

Inflection

Irregular. Some cases are practically never used. The conjunction jos may be the lative singular of this pronoun.

Usage notes

• In Eastern Finnish dialects, the indeclinable stem -ka is still used and, thus, the pronoun forms with -ka can occur in standard Finnish on occasion, because it is not a big error to use it:

• joidenka, jotenka, joihinka, jonneka etc.

Pronoun

joka (indeclinable)

1. (indefinite) every, each:

   Hän käy lenkillä joka päivä.

   She goes jogging every day.

   joka kerta = every time

   joka puolella/puolelta/puolelle, joka paikassa/paikasta/paikkaan = everywhere

   joka tapauksessa = in any case, at any rate

   joka toinen vuosi = every two years, biennially
