ahmia
Finnish
Etymology
ahma + -ia
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /ˈɑhmiɑˣ/, [ˈɑxmiɑ(ʔ)]
- Rhymes: -ɑhmiɑ
- Syllabification(key): ah‧mi‧a
Verb
ahmia
- (transitive) to wolf down, eat quickly, gulp, gobble, hog, stuff oneself with (without regard for table manners)
- (transitive, figuratively) to consume some media in a binge; to read a book through; to binge-watch a series etc.
Usage notes
- Being a momentane verb, ahmaista is used when the amount of the food to be wolfed down is confined or the moment of eating is transient, whereas the frequentative ahmia is used when the duration of the eating is longer, more continuous or more or less indefinite. The difference can sometimes be translated in English by using the continuous tense.
- Hän ahmi omenia, kun minä tulin kotiin.
- S/he was gulping apples when I came home.
- Hän ahmaisi omenan ja juoksi ovesta ulos.
- S/he wolfed the apple down and ran out the door.

| instructive | ahmien | 1) Chiefly in the Soikkola dialect. 2) Chiefly in the Ala-Laukaa dialect. *) For the imperative, the 2nd plural (ahmikaa) may be used for the 3rd person as well. **) The interrogative is formed by adding the suffix -k (-ka?/-kä?) to the indicative, or -kse to the potential. ***) In folk poetry, a long first infinitive can be formed by adding the suffix -kse, followed by possessive suffixes, to the first infinitive. Note that sometimes gemination may be undone by this addition. | |||
