Itsestäänselvinä

Itsestäänselvinä is a Finnish word that translates to "self-evident" or "obvious" in English. It is used to describe something that is so clear and readily apparent that it requires no explanation or proof. The concept of self-evidence is often discussed in philosophy and logic, where it refers to propositions that are true by their very nature and can be understood without recourse to further reasoning.

In everyday Finnish conversation, itsestäänselvinä is used to denote a common understanding or a fact that everyone should be aware of. For example, one might say that it is itsestäänselvinä that the sun rises in the east. The word carries a sense of naturalness and undeniable truth. It can also be used to express a mild impatience with someone who fails to grasp something that seems obvious to the speaker. The plural form, itsestäänselvinä, refers to multiple things that are self-evident.
