Lopputulema

Lopputulema is a Finnish noun that denotes the final result or outcome of a process, event or series of actions. The word is a compound of loppu ("end") and tulema ("coming" or "result"), and is commonly used to describe what remains or is achieved when an activity or procedure is completed.

In usage, lopputulema overlaps with terms such as lopputulos and tulos, though lopputulema often emphasizes the notion of finality or consequence. It appears in everyday language, journalism, academic writing and formal reports to summarize conclusions, consequences or end states. Examples of contexts include project evaluations, scientific experiments, legal proceedings and sporting events.

Stylistically, lopputulema is neutral and standard Finnish; it may carry a slightly formal or evaluative tone depending on context. Translations into English most commonly include "outcome," "end result" or "final outcome." Understanding the word can aid in interpreting summaries and conclusions in Finnish texts, where it signals that the described state is the end point of preceding actions or analyses.
