    The Finnish suffix “-kainen” is used to create nouns that refer to things or beings associated with a particular quality or characteristic. Even though we don’t necessarily mentally associate it with a similar meaning as “-mainen”, it still is. Hence the translation of “bearlike” is close enough.
