Epätasaisemman

"Epätasaisemman" is the genitive case of the Finnish word "epätasaisempi." This adjective translates to "uneven," "rougher," or "more uneven" in English. The genitive case is used to indicate possession, origin, or to describe something related to the noun it modifies.

For example, if one were to discuss the "color of a rougher surface," in Finnish this might be expressed as "epätasaisemman pinnan väri." The word "epätasaisemman" here shows that the color belongs to or is associated with a surface that is more uneven. The comparative form "epätasaisempi" indicates a comparison to something else that is also uneven, but the subject in question is even more so.

The root word is "epätasainen," meaning "uneven" or "not smooth." The suffix "-mpi" turns it into a comparative adjective, indicating a greater degree of unevenness. The "-n" ending then marks it as the genitive case. Finnish grammar utilizes case endings extensively to convey grammatical relationships within a sentence, making it a highly inflected language. Therefore, understanding the function of "epätasaisemman" requires knowledge of both Finnish comparatives and genitive case usage.
