Proper noun[edit]
Konsta
- a male given name
- 1952, Veikko Huovinen, Havukka-ahon ajattelija, WSOY, published 1974, →ISBN, page 223:
- —Nimihän se on Konstakin, hän ajatteli astellessaan. —Setti tai Aate olisi terävämpi nimi lausuttavaksi. Noo, onhan tuo aika kulunut Konsta-nimisenä ihmisenä, puolen vuosisataa jo. Anselmi on mielestäni mölömpi nimi kuin Konsta.
- —Konsta's a decent name too, he pondered as he walked. —Setti or Aate would've been a punchier one to say. Well, I've already lived half a century as someone named Konsta. I think Anselmi is a stupider name than Konsta.
