Tappavimmista

Tappavimmista is a Finnish grammatical form that means “from the most deadly” or “of the most deadly.” It is the elative plural form of the superlative adjective tappavimmat, which derives from tappava meaning deadly. In Finnish, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number and case, and the elative plural suffix -ista/-istä is used when the noun is in the elative plural. Therefore tappavimmista is used when referring to something that comes from or is associated with the group of the most deadly items or persons.

Usage notes:

- tappavimmista typically accompanies a noun in the elative plural, for example tappavimmista viruksista (“from the deadliest viruses”) or tappavimmista tilanteista (“from the most deadly situations”).

- it is a descriptive, not a fixed cultural concept; it functions as a grammatical form within a sentence rather than as an independent concept.

- the form is common in scientific, epidemiological, safety, and risk-assessment contexts where distinctions among levels of danger are discussed.

Examples:

- Tutkijat analyzed tappavimmista viruksista peräisin olevia tietoja.

- Turvallisuussuunnitelmassa huomioitiin tappavimmista tilanteista kertyneitä oppeja.
