Yksittäisien

Yksittäisien is a Finnish word that translates to "individual" or "singular" in English. It is the genitive plural form of the word "yksittäinen," which means "individual" or "single." In Finnish grammar, the genitive case often indicates possession or a part of something. The plural form refers to multiple individual items or entities. Therefore, "yksittäisien" typically appears in contexts discussing a collection of distinct, separate things or people.

For example, one might encounter "yksittäisien tapausten tutkimus," meaning "the study of individual cases." This phrase highlights the focus on examining each case separately rather than as part of a larger trend. Similarly, "yksittäisien ihmisten oikeudet" translates to "the rights of individual people," emphasizing the importance of personal freedoms. The word's usage underscores a focus on distinction and separation within a group or set. It signifies that each element is being considered on its own merits or characteristics. This grammatical form is crucial for conveying nuanced meaning in Finnish, particularly when discussing discrete units or members of a larger whole.
