jäänyt
"Jäänyt" means "left," "remained," or "stayed" in English.
In this sentence, 'jäänyt' is the past participle of the verb 'jäädä', meaning 'to stay'. It is used to express a present perfect action where the subject 'has remained' in a place.
Hän on jäänyt kotiin tänään.
She has stayed at home today.
Here, 'jäänyt' serves as an adjective derived from the same verb 'jäädä', describing the snowflake that 'has been left' on the street.
Tuo kadulla jäänyt lumihiutale on kaunis.
That snowflake left on the street is beautiful.
In this example, 'jäänyt' describes a repeated action or state of 'being stuck thinking' about something. It is combined with 'olen' to form a present perfect form.
