Kiertävillä

Kiertävillä is a Finnish word that translates to "rotating," "circular," or "revolving" in English. It is the adessive plural form of the adjective "kiertävä," which means rotating or circular. The word is used in various contexts to describe movement or arrangement that is not linear, but rather involves a turning or cyclical motion.

In physics and engineering, "kiertävillä" might describe the motion of a planet around its star, or the operation of a rotating machine part. For example, a description of a centrifuge might use the term "kiertävillä liikkeillä" to refer to its spinning action.

In a more general sense, "kiertävillä" can refer to things that are arranged in a circle or a cycle. This could apply to seating arrangements, such as "kiertävillä paikoilla," meaning seats arranged in a circle. It can also describe cyclical processes or systems, like "kiertävillä vuoroilla," indicating rotating shifts. The concept of "kiertävillä" implies a continuous movement or a repeating pattern, distinguishing it from static or linear arrangements.
