Finnish-English translations for jyrkkä

steep
us
Last year’s steep rise in oil prices led to major problems for a number of airlines. Öljyn hintojen jyrkkä nousu viime vuonna aiheutti vakavia ongelmia monille lentoyhtiöille. When the path is narrow and steep, it is better to move forward in small steps than not to move forward at all. Silloin kun polku on kapea ja jyrkkä, on parempi edetä pienin askelin kuin pysähtyä kokonaan. Furthermore, the steep decline in the value of the dollar was a shock, not only for the Americans but for us also. Myös dollarin arvon jyrkkä aleneminen on ollut shokki. Ei ainoastaan amerikkalaisille vaan myös meille.

intransigent
us
The problem is Turkey's intransigent and arbitrary policy. Ongelmana on Turkin jyrkkä ja mielivaltainen politiikka. In short, a hard intransigent approach leads to strengthening fanatic, anti-democratic and aggressive attitudes. Lyhyesti sanottuna kova ja jyrkkä lähestymistapa johtaa fanaattisten, demokratian vastaisten ja aggressiivisten asenteiden yleistymiseen. Dont waste your time trying to change his mind: hes completely intransigent.
