Usage notes

As illustrated by the examples above, the person who is annoyed is in the partitive case, and the cause of the annoyance is the subject of the sentence. There are a number of Finnish verbs that behave in the same way — the impersonal verbs. For example, all the verbs that are mentioned in the synonym section below behave this way.
