I am trying to understand the prepositions and postpositions. So if you were to say, I am next to the bar, would it be, Minut olen lähinnä jotta aisa? Thing is I see vieressa is the preposition for next to, how do I know which letter it goes after since its case ending? I don't know if this is even correct, I use Intertran Online Translator. Literally (I understand bar as a club or joint) I am next to the bar would be Olen baarin vieressä or longerly Minä olen baarin vieressä, if you want to emphasize actor.     I'm not sure what you are asking, case of using -a/-ä or -ss-/-ll- or what?    ***    Automatic translation between english and finnish usually doesn't work since structure of sentence differs. But I try to explain that one:  Minut olen lähinnä jotta aisa    Minut is form of minä corresponding english me (as whole). exp: Take me with you in Finnish Ota minut mukaasi (Ota=take, minut=me, mukaa=with, -si=you).    Olen is correct, corresponding (I) am.    Lähinnä could be near, close to, almost and not really suits in this idea.    Jotta is mistyped. I think it should be in here jotain, in meaning of something, some or jota in meaning of which, who in partitive case.    Aisa is also mistyped and I think it should be asia which means thing, issue, topic etc (Aisa means shaft).
