Lämpimimpiä

Lämpimimpiä is the comparative form of the Finnish word lämmin, meaning "warm". Therefore, lämpimimpiä translates to "warmer" in English. It is used to compare two or more things that are warmer than something else. For example, "Aurinko on tänään lämpimimpiä kuin eilen" means "The sun is warmer today than yesterday". The word can also be used in a superlative context to mean "warmest" when comparing more than two items, although the dedicated superlative form is lämpimin.

The word lämpimimpiä is derived from the root lämpö, meaning "heat" or "warmth". The comparative suffix -mpi is added to form lämpimämpi, and the plural partitive ending -ä is then attached to indicate that the "warmer" quality applies to multiple items or to an indefinite quantity. Understanding the grammatical structure of Finnish is key to correctly using and interpreting forms like lämpimimpiä. It signifies a relative increase in temperature compared to a reference point.
