Täysiä

Täysiä is the plural partitive form of the Finnish adjective täysi, meaning "full" or "complete." It is used to describe plural nouns that are in the partitive case, indicating that the described items are full, filled, or at a maximum capacity. In Finnish grammar, adjectives agree with the noun in number and case, so when the noun is plural and in partitive, the adjective takes the form täysiä.

Common usage occurs with everyday, tangible items such as containers or portions. Examples include phrases like täysiä pulloja (full bottles), täysiä astioita (full dishes), or täysiä annoksia (full portions). The form signals that each item in the group is filled to capacity, rather than merely being many in number.

Täysiä can also appear in figurative or extended senses where fullness or completeness applies to a group of items or concepts, though in many contexts speakers may opt for other constructions such as täynnä to express “full of” more idiomatically.

Etymology traces täysi to the Finnish root tied to fill and abundance, related to the verb täyttää (to fill). The word functions as an adjective in inflected form and is not typically used as a standalone noun; its meaning is closely tied to how the associated noun is understood as full or complete.
