Tulokset

Tulokset is a Finnish noun meaning the results or outcomes of events, actions, or processes. The singular form is tulos, and the plural is tulokset. The term is neutral and widely used across many domains, including science, sports, media, and administration.

In research and analysis, tulokset refer to the data, findings, or conclusions obtained from experiments or studies. They are usually presented together with methods and may be accompanied by statistical measures, figures, and discussion. In sports and competitions, tulokset denote scores, rankings, or who won a match or event. In political contexts, vaalitulokset are the official election results. In everyday language, tulokset can describe the outcome of plans, tests, surveys, or other activities. Common compound forms include tutkimustulokset (research results), kokeiden tulokset (test results), and vaalitulokset (election results).

Usage notes: tulokset conveys the outcome itself without implying quality; adjectives or context determine whether the result is good, bad, or neutral. In formal writing, tulokset are often reported with accompanying explanations, limitations, or recommendations. When referring to a single final outcome, tulos (singular) may be used, while tulokset denote multiple or reported results.
