Argh. They are blithely ignoring a crucial point of grammar in the phrase "I live in ..."; in the Finnish language the role of the preposition "in" is taken by a suffix "-ssa"/"-ssä". Thus: "I live in Syracusa" -- "Minä asun Syracusassa"
Every time there is a preposition in an English phrase (and quite often when there isn't), there will be a suffix in the Finnish equivalent.
