Katkelmalliset

Katkelmalliset is a Finnish term that translates to "fragmentary" or "broken" in English. It is often used to describe something that is incomplete, discontinuous, or exists only in pieces. This can apply to a variety of contexts, including physical objects, abstract concepts, or even written texts.

For instance, a fragmented artifact might be referred to as katkelmalliset if it has broken into several parts and is no longer whole. In literature or historical records, a text could be described as katkelmalliset if significant portions are missing or illegible, making it difficult to fully understand the original content. The term can also be used metaphorically. A memory might be described as katkelmalliset if it is hazy and incomplete, or a plan could be deemed katkelmalliset if it has been disrupted and cannot be fully executed. The core idea conveyed by katkelmalliset is a lack of wholeness and integrity.
