Katkeamattoman

Katkeamattoman is the genitive singular form of the Finnish adjective katkeamaton, meaning unbreakable or uninterruptible. In Finnish, adjectives inflect for case, so katkeamattoman appears when it modifies a noun in the genitive or when expressing possession or attribution, such as in phrases like katkeamattoman rakenteen or katkeamattoman virtalähteen.

Etymology and form: Katkeamaton is built from the root katkeama, meaning a break or interruption, with the negative suffix -ton, giving “unbreakable.” The genitive singular form katkeamattoman is used to link the quality to a possessed or qualified noun, for example katkeamattoman rakenteen or katkeamattoman toiminnan.

Usage: The form is typical in technical, descriptive, or evaluative Finnish where durability or continuity is emphasized. It appears in constructions that attribute the quality to an object or system, often in contexts such as physical durability, continuous operation, or reliable performance. Examples include phrases like katkeamattoman rakenteen luotettavuus (the reliability of the unbreakable structure) or katkeamattoman virtalähteen tarjoama energia (the energy provided by the uninterruptible power supply).
