Pienimmät

Pienimmät is the Finnish adjective form meaning “the smallest.” It is the plural form of the superlative pienin and is used to refer to the smallest members within a group. In ordinary use, pienimmät accompanies a plural noun, as in pienimmät lapset (the smallest children) or pienimmät palaset (the smallest pieces). It can also function in predicative position, for example Nämä ovat pienimmät (These are the smallest).

In Finnish grammar, the superlative is created with the suffix -in, and the plural ending -t is added for nominative plural. Therefore, the form agrees with the noun it modifies in number and follows standard Finnish noun-adjective agreement rules. The word conveys a relative comparison: the entities described are smaller than others in the same group.

Pienimmät is not typically a proper name or title on its own, but it can appear as such in specific texts when capitalized for emphasis or as a heading (for example, as a label such as “Pienimmät” in a catalog or article). In general, though, it is best understood as a common grammatical form meaning “the smallest.”

Translations into English vary by context and can be “the smallest,” “the tiniest,” or “the most small” in a given sentence, though the natural rendering in Finnish relies on the superlative structure rather than a direct equivalent phrase.
