Hi jgranacher,

The term determination in Finnish is "päättäväisyys".

Search strategy:
Members of my family are fluent Finnish speakers.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
Rainbow

Very complete answer, thanks, even though I was looking for "sisu".

Or perhaps you have heard of the word "sisu"? One of those
hard-to-translate words, it means having grit, determination, maybe
even toughness.

"Sisu" was what I was looking for. Thanks very much!
