Laajemmassakin

Laajemmassakin is a Finnish adverbial form used to say that something applies not only in a narrow sense but “even in a broader sense” or “even in broader contexts.” It is formed by combining the comparative adjective laajempi, meaning broader, with the particle -kin, which adds emphasis and inclusivity. The result signals that a statement or finding extends beyond a previously considered scope.

Grammatically, laajemmassa is the adessive singular form of the comparative adjective laajempi, indicating “in a broader sense.” The suffix -kin functions as a focus or emphatic particle meaning “also” or “even,” and attaching it yields laajemmassakin, i.e., “in an even broader sense.” The construction is a standard feature of Finnish grammar and is not restricted to any single register.

Usage of laajemmassakin is common in formal written Finnish, including academic and journalistic contexts, where authors want to broaden the frame of reference. It carries a mild but clear emphasis that the point holds when more extensive factors or contexts are considered.
