Väärseid

Väärseid is a Finnish word that translates to "wrong" or "incorrect" in English. It is a plural form of the adjective "väärä," which means wrong or false. The word can be used in various contexts to describe something that is not right, true, or as expected. For example, one might say "väärät vastaukset" meaning "wrong answers" in the context of a test or quiz. It can also refer to incorrect information or a mistaken belief, such as "väärä tieto" for "wrong information."

Beyond literal correctness, väärä and its forms can also imply something that is morally wrong, unjust, or improper. For instance, "väärä teko" could mean a wrong deed or an immoral act. In a more abstract sense, it can denote something that is misaligned or not functioning as it should. The concept of "väärä" is fundamental to distinguishing between accuracy and inaccuracy, truth and falsehood, and correctness and error in the Finnish language and culture. Understanding this term is key to grasping the nuances of expressing negation and error in Finnish.
