Täneet

Täneet is a term sometimes used in Finnish to describe a person who is generally clumsy, awkward, or lacks grace in their movements. It can imply a lack of coordination or a tendency to make mistakes due to physical ineptitude. The word is informal and often used in a lighthearted or slightly derogatory manner. It's not a formal scientific or technical term, but rather a common descriptive word in everyday Finnish conversation. The usage of täneet can range from gently teasing a friend who trips to more pointedly criticizing someone's perceived lack of skill in a particular activity. The exact nuance can depend heavily on context and tone of voice. While the core meaning revolves around physical awkwardness, it can sometimes be extended to describe someone who is socially clumsy or makes poor decisions due to a lack of foresight or understanding.
