Spesifisempää

Spesifisempää is the Finnish comparative form of the adjective spesifinen (or spesifi), meaning more specific. It is used to indicate that something has a greater level of specificity or detail than another thing. The word appears in the partitive singular form spesifisempää, which is used when the noun it modifies is in the partitive case, such as tietoa or kuvausta.

In Finnish, the comparative form spesifisempi denotes greater specificity and is commonly used in scientific, technical, and analytical contexts, as well as in everyday language when precision is emphasized. The nuance of spesifisempää centers on narrowing scope or increasing detail, rather than merely improving accuracy. It often contrasts with tarkempi, which also means more precise but can carry a slightly different emphasis on exactness.

Etymology and usage notes: spesifinen is borrowed from international scientific vocabulary, tracing back to Latin specificus, through common European-language adaptations. The comparative form spesifisempi follows Finnish inflection patterns for adjectives ending in -inen, with the accompanying case endings determined by the noun’s grammatical role in the sentence.

Examples:

- Tarjoamme spesifisempää tietoa raportissa.

- Haluaisin spesifisempää selitystä ongelmalle.

- Spesifisempää dataa tarvitaan seuraavassa vaiheessa.

Spesifisempää is thus a standard, neutral term for expressing that information, scope, or description has been made more particular or detailed.
