Epätasapuolinen

Epätasapuolinen is a Finnish adjective that translates to unbalanced, uneven, or disproportionate. It describes a state where things are not equal, fair, or balanced. This can apply to a wide range of contexts, from physical objects to abstract concepts.

In a literal sense, epätasapuolinen can refer to a physical object that is not stable or evenly weighted, such as an unbalanced load in a vehicle or a tilted table. It can also describe an uneven surface or distribution of something. For example, a landscape could be described as epätasapuolinen if it has significant variations in elevation or features.

Figuratively, epätasapuolinen is often used to describe situations that lack fairness or equity. This could include an epätasapuolinen distribution of resources, power, or opportunities within a society or group. It can also describe an epätasapuolinen relationship where one party consistently gives more than they receive, or where there is a significant power imbalance. In the context of arguments or discussions, an epätasapuolinen presentation of facts might involve omitting crucial information or emphasizing certain points unfairly. The term highlights a lack of equilibrium and can imply that a situation is inherently problematic or requires adjustment to achieve a more balanced state.
