Finnish
Etymology
Borrowed from dialectal Swedish klobb (compare standard Swedish klubb (“lump, clump, dumpling”)).
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /ˈklopːi/, [ˈklo̞pːi]
- Rhymes: -opːi
- Syllabification(key): klop‧pi
- Hyphenation(key): klop‧pi
Noun
kloppi
- (possibly derogatory) lad, stripling
- Synonyms: nulikka, nulkki, jolppi
2008, “Ihminen”, in Mikko Kuoppala & Timo Snellman (lyrics), Arvoitus koko ihminen:Liikaa mestoja, oppeja, estoja. / Kloppein’ ei kelailtu matkojen kestoja.- Too many places, lessons learned, inhibitions. / [Back when we were] lads, we never thought about how long a trip would take.
- (dialectal) cigarette tube
Usage notes
- (stripling): Sometimes translated into English with "rascal" or "scamp", which is misleading in the sense that kloppi does not necessarily imply mischief by definition.
