Laajennokset

Laajennokset is a Finnish-derived term referring generally to extensions, enlargements or additions made to an existing object, system or concept. The word stems from the verb laajentaa ("to expand") and is used across multiple domains to denote appended or expanded parts that alter scope, capacity or functionality.

In construction and architecture laajennokset describe building additions such as extra rooms, wings or annexes that increase usable area. Such projects commonly involve structural design, regulatory approvals and integration with existing systems. In software and computing the term is used for plugins, modules or extensions that augment an application or platform with new features; considerations there include compatibility, security and maintenance. In mathematics and formal sciences laajennokset denote extended structures — for example field extensions or enlargements of algebraic systems — and are studied for their properties relative to the original object. In business and policy contexts laajennokset may mean territorial enlargement, scope expansion of services, or growth initiatives.

Usage emphasizes the relationship between the original entity and the added elements: whether the laajennokset are reversible, compatible, temporary or permanent, and how they affect performance, governance and user experience. Related Finnish terms include laajennus (expansion) and laajentaminen (the act of expanding); specific meanings depend on the technical or cultural context in which the term appears.
