Iäkkäämmän

Iäkkäämmän is a Finnish word that translates to "older" or "elderly" in English. It is derived from the Finnish word "ikä," which means "age," and the suffix "-mmän," which is used to form comparative adjectives in Finnish. The word is used to describe something or someone that is more aged or advanced in years compared to another. For example, "Tämä talo on iäkkäämmän kuin tuo" translates to "This house is older than that one."

In Finnish, the comparative form of adjectives is often used to indicate a higher degree of a quality. For instance, "iäkkäämmän" is the comparative form of "ikäkä," which means "old" or "aged." The superlative form, which indicates the highest degree, would be "iäkkäin." For example, "Tämä talo on iäkkäin kaikista" translates to "This house is the oldest of all."

The use of "iäkkäämmän" is common in everyday conversation and writing in Finnish. It is particularly useful when comparing the age of objects, people, or events. For example, "Hän on iäkkäämmän kuin minä" translates to "He is older than me." This word helps to convey the relative age or seniority of different entities in a clear and concise manner.
