However, they may often be used synonymously with no discretion. sumu describes very thick vapor obscuring the visibility near the ground and thus it is translated usually as "fog" or "mist". usva describes somewhat thick vapor near the ground. Therefore, it is translated usually as "mist", "fog" or "haze". In some contexts, usva is treated as a synonym of sumu. utu describes very light vapor near the ground, especially that occurring in the morning and therefore it is translated usually as "haze" or "mist". utu technically only applies to haze consisting of moisture or water vapor, while haze caused by dust particles is called auer. ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== ==== See also ==== auer, auder === References === === Further reading === “utu”, in Kielitoimiston sanakirja [Dictionary of Contemporary Finnish]‎[2] (in Finnish) (online dictionary, continuously updated), Kotimaisten kielten keskuksen verkkojulkaisuja 35, Helsinki: Kotimaisten kielten tutkimuskeskus (Institute for the Languages of Finland), 2004–, retrieved 4 July 2023 === Anagrams === tuu == Galoli == === Etymology === Inherited from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *kutu. === Noun === utu louse == Ingrian == === Etymology === From Proto-Finnic *utu.
