It is an adjective used to describe an object or surface that has less vertical dimension or is more spread out horizontally than something else. The word is a comparative form of the adjective "litteä," meaning "flat."

The concept of litteämpi is applied in various contexts. In geometry, it might describe a shape that is compressed or has a reduced thickness. In everyday language, it could refer to a book that is litteämpi than another, implying it has fewer pages or a thinner binding. Similarly, a landscape could be described as litteämpi if it lacks significant elevation changes or is predominantly level.
