    • 1996 Onnimanni,Kuullun ymmärtäminen, ET-lehti 3/1996, page 39: :
      Naapuripöydissä kävi aika metakka, kun vaari-ikäiset tohkasivat päivän teemaansa:
      ―Ette usko, mutta vanhimmalla pojalla on Jeppe ja Jeri...
      ―Ja meidän likalla Vili, ihan totta...
      Suntelli huutaa:
      ―Serkkupojalla kirmaa Peetu ja Tomppa...
      The neighboring tables had quite a racket when the grandpas were loudly talking about their topic of the day::
      ―You won't believe me, but my oldest son has Jeppe and Jeri...
      ―And our daughter has a Vili, earnestly...
      Suntelli yells out:
      ―My cousin has Peetu and Tomppa...
