Suomen kansan Arwoituksia: ynnä 189 Wiron arwoituksen kanssa

A large anthology gathers more than a thousand oral riddles from the region, with selected counterparts in a neighboring vernacular. Entries are numbered and often supplied with brief commentary or solutions; an extended introduction situates riddles in social practices such as games, courtship tests, and communal entertainment and emphasizes their role in preserving vernacular language. The items rely on nature, household and animal imagery, punning and double meanings, and show local variation in wording. The collection aims to record diverse variants, encourage further gathering of proverbs and songs, and make oral traditions accessible to readers.
