just in case he doesn't answer, SISU is a Finnish word, and translates to "heart, or courage, or inner thunder"

ie: "when I was throwing the Javelin back in highschool, my dad said to put some SISU into my throw, its like that inner strength that lives in Finnish people (some kinda myth)"

So, that's the dictionary definition of SISU, I'm interested to see what stangRRR says"

Jetoumi has got it right on. It was a great username, but I was starting to get tired of explaining it all of the time.

There's lots of definitions for the word "Sisu" such as the ones already given. I don't think that there is only one word that directly translates it into english. I usually take it to mean inner strength, stamina, or sometimes just plain stubbornness...
