‘O’ is for ‘on’, which means ‘[it] is’ (or similar in other 
grammatical person, as appropriate), and is how one responds 
to ‘Onko ...’ (‘Is it ...’), as an alternative to ‘joo’ or 
‘kyllä’ (‘yes’). Colloquially, people say ‘oo’ rather than 
‘on’, so the letter ‘o’ (in addition to ‘j’ and ‘k’) is 
appropriate.
