Kuvauksellisia

Kuvauksellisia is a Finnish adjective form meaning evocative, descriptive, or picturesque, used to describe plural nouns. The base adjective kuvauksellinen carries the sense of vivid depiction or sensory detail, and kuvauksellisia is its plural form used with nouns in partitive or other non-definite plural contexts.

In usage, kuvauksellisia often appears in literary criticism, journalism, and arts writing to indicate that language, imagery, or presentation creates strong sensory impressions. It can modify prose, poetry, visual media, or descriptions that are rich in detail. For example, one might speak of kuvauksellisia kuvia (evocative pictures), kuvauksellisia tarinoita (evocative stories), or kuvauksellisia kielikuvia (vivid figures of speech). The term generally carries a positive connotation when praising artistic effect, though it can be used neutrally to describe descriptive style.

Grammatically, kuvauksellisia is the plural form used with plural nouns in partitive or indefinite contexts. The nominative plural form is kuvaukselliset. The word derives from kuvaus (description) with the suffix -ellinen, and is related to other descriptive terms such as kuvailullinen (descriptive in a broader sense) and kuvainnollinen (figurative, illustrative).
