Not that the others wouldn't have, you just had a notable amount of them ).
Thanks. I thought some people would say it's horrible. Nice to see I was able to make some good translations. <3

The official Finnish translation for POWDER SNOW is PUUTERILUMI.
"Puuterilumi" is the term we use for that kind of snow ;3
Actually, when I checked out the official grammar, it said it's PULVERILUMI, not the one you suggested. No offence but it's true; Powder as a word means Pulveri in finnish, and it's a lot more beautiful word imo. I've even translated the song in finnish and I don't think your option even fits together with the lyrics, at least from my point of view. x)
