finna is referring to "nothing could be finna...."  where a "finnda" is talking about a car.... "I was just in a finnda bender...."

This has bothered me for some time.  "I'm finna go to da store" or "I finnda be there".  Does it mean "fix'in"?

from your examples..

"Finna" as in PREPARING to do something soon

"Finnda" as in GOING to do something at a point later.

This is what I figured but when I asked some people who were using it, they couldn't tell me?!?   I can understand using "Fix'in" in the South but this is NY?   I also was asked for a "case quarter" which I responded "No" but have no clue what that is either.



STAY POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The coin.. Not 25 pennies or 2 dimes and a nickle. A lot of this is on Urban Dictionary if you care to check it out.
