Täyspitkistä

Täyspitkistä is a Finnish word that translates to "full-length" or "entirety" in English. It is often used to describe the complete duration or span of something, such as a movie, a concert, or a journey. For example, "katsoimme täyspitkistä elokuvaa" means "we watched a full-length movie." The word can also refer to the whole of something in a more abstract sense, like a complete period of time or a comprehensive account.

The word is formed from the noun "täysi," meaning "full" or "complete," and the noun "pitkä," meaning "long." When combined, "täyspitkistä" emphasizes the unbroken and complete nature of the subject being described. It conveys the idea that nothing has been omitted or cut short.

In everyday Finnish conversation, täyspitkistä is a common adjective used to distinguish between shorter versions and the original, complete form. It can also be used adverbially to indicate that something was done in its entirety. For instance, "hän puhui täyspitkistä" could mean "he spoke at length" or "he spoke about the whole matter." The context usually clarifies the precise meaning.
