Supistettuna

Supistettuna is a Finnish adjective and participial form derived from the verb supistaa, meaning to contract, reduce, or compress. The word describes something that has been made shorter, more concise, or more compact. In written Finnish, supistettuna is used to indicate that information or a form has been reduced from its full version, often in contexts such as documents, reports, summaries, or presentations. It is commonly seen in phrases like supistettuna versiona or supistettuna muotona, where it roughly corresponds to the English condensed or abridged version.

In practice, supistettuna is often preferred to other terms such as tiivistetty or lyhennetty when the emphasis is on a form being reduced rather than merely summarized. The expression can function in various syntactic roles, commonly describing a document, a report, or a presentation.

Usage notes and examples:

Raportti on saatavilla supistettuna versiona.

Katsaus esiteltiin supistettuna muotona, jossa keskityttiin olennaisiin kohtiin.

Related terms and alternatives include tiivistetty (condensed), lyhennetty (shortened), and abridged equivalents in English. While supistettuna conveys the sense of reduction or compression, tiivistetty is often more common for straightforward summarization. The choice between these forms depends on the desired nuance and the context of publication or communication.
