Lämmittelyäkin

Lämmittelyäkin is a Finnish word that translates to "warming up too" or "even warming up" in English. It is often used in casual conversation to indicate that an activity, typically a physical one like exercise, is being done in addition to or as a secondary consideration to another more primary activity. For instance, someone might say "Käyn lenkillä, lämmittelyäkin teen" which means "I'm going for a run, I'll warm up too." This implies that the run is the main purpose, and the warm-up is an added, perhaps less emphasized, component.

The word functions as an adverbial particle, modifying the verb "lämmitellä" (to warm up). The "-kin" suffix in Finnish is an enclitic particle that adds emphasis, often conveying a sense of "also," "too," "even," or "as well." Therefore, "lämmittelyäkin" suggests that warming up is happening, but it might not be the sole focus or might be done in a less intense manner compared to the main activity. It can also be used ironically or humorously, implying that even a minimal warm-up is being undertaken, or that the main activity is so demanding that it inherently includes a warm-up.
