Voimakkaimmista

Voimakkaimmista is a Finnish grammatical form used to express “from the strongest ones” or “of the strongest ones.” It is the elative plural form of the superlative adjective voimakkaimmat, which itself comes from the stem voimakas meaning strong or powerful. In Finnish, adjectives decline for number and case to agree with the noun they modify. When the adjective is in the superlative and the phrase is placed in the elative case, the form becomes voimakkaimmista.

Morphology and forms: The base stem for the superlative is voimakkaimm-, and adding the elative plural ending -ista yields voimakkaimmista. The corresponding nominative plural is voimakkaimmat; the genitive plural is voimakkaimpien; the inessive plural is voimakkaimmissa. These parallel forms show how the same base is inflected across cases.

Usage: Voimakkaimmista is typically used when referring to a subset chosen from among the strongest individuals or groups, in contexts such as analysis, rankings, or descriptions of relative strength. Examples include phrases like voimakkaimmista ryhmistä (from the strongest groups) or voimakkaimmista ihmisistä (from the strongest people). The form is common in academic writing, journalism, and discussions of competition, capability, or intensity.

Notes: Voimakkaimmista is a grammatical expression rather than a standalone lexical item; correct use depends on aligning the adjective with a noun in the elative plural. It illustrates Finnish adjective agreement and case system in action. See also Finnish grammar, adjectives in Finnish, and the formation of superlatives.
