I think you can also change the title of this thread if you edit your first post, in case you would like to do so.kloie wrote:I hope,that I could ask another question,without opening a new post.
I think this is because in colloquial language, the regular we-form of the indicative mood is often used in place of the we-form of the imperative mood. Imperative mood for 1st person plural ("Hakakem minema!") is overly poetic.Linguaphile wrote:So, for example, the phrase Hakkame minema more often means "let's get going!" rather than "we're beginning to go."

And yes, your translation is correct.
But I'm afraid I can't explain the exact reasons why ma-infinitive is used here. Maybe it could be perceived as relative future. Or "on valmis aitama" could be translated as 'is ready to get into the state of helping'.

What does it mean? And I think it should be lõpetada because it's impersonal.
