Keveämmältä

"Keveämmältä" is a Finnish word, an inflected form of the adjective "kevyt." It translates to "lighter" in English, often used in a comparative sense. This form can modify a noun or stand alone as a predicate adjective. For instance, one might say "paketti tuntuu keveämmältä" (the package feels lighter) or " Tämä maali on keveämmältä kuin edellinen" (This paint is lighter than the previous one).

The word "kevyt" itself can describe physical lightness in terms of weight, but also metaphorical lightness. "Keveämmältä" carries these same nuances. It can refer to a less dense substance, a more manageable task, or a less serious atmosphere. The context in which "keveämmältä" is used dictates its precise meaning. It's a common and versatile word in everyday Finnish conversation, facilitating comparisons of weight, density, effort, or emotional burden. The ending "-ltä" indicates the elative case, signifying movement or origin from something, or in this comparative context, a degree or extent relative to something else.
