How to look forward in Finnish

$

Looking forward to something is a phrase that doesn't really exist in Finnish. Forward is eteenpäin, but it doesn't work in this case. Here are some expressions with the same idea:

  • Mä odotan sitä innolla. - I'm waiting for it with enthusiasm.
  • Mä oon siitä tosi innoissani. - I'm really excited about it. 
  • Vähän mä oon innoissani! - I'm REALLY excited! (Vähän sometimes means the opposite.)
  • En malta odottaa! - I don't have the patience to wait!
  • On tosi hauska mennä sinne. - It's really nice to go there. 
  • Onpa kiva mennä sinne! - So nice to go there!
