Ajankohtaisia

Ajankohtaisia is a Finnish adjective form meaning current or topical, used to describe plural nouns in the partitive case. It is the partitive plural form of ajankohtainen, which relates to time and timeliness. In practice, ajankohtaisia translates roughly to “current” or “up-to-date” when modifying plural nouns such as uutisia, aiheita, or tapahtumia.

The word appears most often in media and everyday language to refer to topics and items that are timely or relevant at the moment. Examples include ajankohtaisia uutisia (current news), ajankohtaisia aiheita (current topics), and ajankohtaisia tapahtumia (recent events). Because it is a modifying form, ajankohtaisia must agree with the noun it describes in number and case.

Ajankohtaisia is not a standalone noun; its meaning depends on the noun it accompanies. It is commonly used in journalism to label sections, segments, or discussions that focus on contemporary matters. The related singular form ajankohtainen is used with singular nouns (e.g., ajankohtainen uutinen). Adverbial forms such as ajankohtaisesti exist to describe actions done in a timely or current manner.
