Summauksina

Summauksina is a Finnish linguistic term that denotes presenting information as summaries. It is used to signal that content is being supplied in condensed form rather than in full detail. The form is typically used in academic writing, journalism, and data reporting where quick comprehension is prioritized and where multiple summaries may be provided for different sections or aspects.

Origin and form: Summaus is the Finnish noun for a summary or compendium; summauksina is the plural form used to mean “as summaries” or “in the form of summaries.” The term reflects a tendency in Finnish to use suffixes to express role or representation. In practice, summauksina appears in stylistic notes or methodological sections that require conveying results in concise blocks.

Usage examples: A report could present results summauksina, listing core figures with brief annotations. An article might be structured summauksina, with each section summarizing its main points.

Relation to related terms: Summauksina is related to abstracts, digests, and précis; while abstracts are common in academic publishing, summauksina emphasizes presenting multiple summaries or a summary-based structure across the work.
