Tardiivne

Tardiivne is a Finnish word that translates to "late" or "delayed" in English. It is often used to describe something that happens after the expected or usual time. For example, one might refer to tardiiven development in a child or tardiiven onset of a disease. The word can also be used in a more general sense to describe anything that is slow to arrive or progress.

In medical contexts, tardiivne symptoms can refer to a variety of conditions that manifest later in life than typically expected. This can apply to congenital conditions that are not apparent at birth or to conditions that develop gradually over time. The term emphasizes the delayed nature of the manifestation rather than the underlying cause.

Beyond medicine, tardiivne can be used in everyday language to describe a tardy arrival, a late-blooming talent, or any situation where an event or process unfolds with a noticeable delay. It carries a sense of something that is not happening according to an anticipated schedule. The word itself does not imply a negative judgment but rather a description of timing.
