Monikohtaisesti

Monikohtaisesti is a Finnish adverb that translates to "multi-locationally" or "in multiple places" in English. It describes an action, state, or occurrence that takes place in more than one location simultaneously or over a period of time. The word is formed by combining "moni-" meaning "many" and "kohtaisesti" which is derived from "kohta" meaning "place" or "point," and the adverbial suffix "-isesti".

When an event is described as monikohtaisesti, it implies that it is not confined to a single geographical spot but rather spans across several. For example, a company might operate monikohtaisesti, meaning it has offices or branches in various cities or countries. Similarly, a phenomenon could be observed monikohtaisesti, indicating its presence in different areas. The usage emphasizes the distributed nature of something, contrasting with actions that are singular or localized. It is often used in contexts related to business, logistics, research, and events.
