Finnish sauna temperature within the sauna. Only the word "löyly" is used for this particular type of steam (the Finnish word "höyry" ('steam, vapour') is never used for it except in a scientific sense. Equivalents for "löyly" can be found in the Finnic languages such as the Karelian "löyly", the Estonian "leil", the Votic "leülü", the Veps "l'öl"' and the Livonian "löul".

For example, contemporary Estonian, which is so closely related to Finnish that the two languages are mutually intelligible, has shifted towards the fusional type. (It has also lost other features typical of the Uralic families, such as vowel harmony.) Examples of agglutinative languages include the Uralic languages, such as
