Borrowed from Old Swedish lagh (compare Swedish lag), from Old Norse lǫg. Doublet of lako and laki (“summit; ceiling”).
Noun edit
laki
- (countable) act (a specific legal statute, inferior to a constitution)
- (countable) statute (written law, either a constitution or an act, as laid down by the legislature)
- (uncountable) law (collection of acts, sense 1)
- lain mukaan ― by law
- code (official collection of laws)

Usage notes edit
- As a legal statute in Finland, laki is superior to asetus and inferior to perustuslaki. Names of acts are decapitalised. The names of acts are either unhyphenated compounds, e.g. avioliittolaki (“Marriage Act (1929/234)”), or noun phrases consisting of the word laki and a subsequent elative qualifier (-sta/-stä), e.g. laki eräistä asbestipurkutyötä koskevista vaatimuksista (“Act on Certain Requirements Concerning Asbestos Removal Work (684/2015)”). The official names of legal statutes adopted in plenary session following the same, normal procedure include:
- laki (“act”)
- kaari (“code”) (e.g. oikeudenkäymiskaari (“the Code of Judicial Procedure”))
- eduskunnan työjärjestys (“the Parliament's Rules of Procedure”)
