Täyden

Täyden is a Finnish grammatical form, not a standalone lexical item in most contexts. It is the genitive singular form of the adjective täysi, which means “full” or “complete.” In Finnish, adjectives agree with the noun they modify for case and number; when the noun is in the genitive case, the adjective takes the genitive singular form, producing täyden. This form therefore appears only within phrases where the noun is in genitive and it signals fullness or completeness of the described noun.

Because Finnish grammar relies on inflection, täyden can change if the noun’s case or number changes, and a different inflected form would be used for other grammatical contexts. Täyden may occur in a wide range of contexts, from descriptive phrases in narrative text to more formal writing. It is part of standard inflection patterns and is not typically treated as a separate, independent sense of meaning beyond its role as the genitive singular of täysi.

In reference works on Finnish grammar, täyden is described as the genitive singular form of täysi and as an example of how adjectives decline to agree with nouns in genitive constructions. For readers studying Finnish syntax, it illustrates how adjectival forms function within possessive-like or “of” constructions that use the genitive case.
