I prefer using *_*_abbreviation and *_*_initial in the translation, as
it is easier to understand what the strings are.  As long as the
string matches the above patterns it works fine with the code (i.e.
the word after the last _ must not be translated).

This is not the only mistranslation I've found by going through a
translated site in production... :-)

Please use entities when regenerating the fi_FI.mo file, so that it
can be used with both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1.
