Yltyyppinen

Yltyyppinen is a Finnish word that translates to "excessive" or "exaggerated" in English. It is often used to describe something that is overdone, beyond what is considered normal or reasonable. The word can be applied to a wide range of situations, from behaviors and reactions to physical attributes and artistic expressions.

For instance, someone might be described as having an yltyyppinen personality if they are overly dramatic or react with extreme emotion to minor events. In art, an yltyyppinen style might be characterized by excessive ornamentation or an exaggerated use of color. Similarly, if someone consumes an yltyyppinen amount of food, it implies they are eating far more than necessary.

The word carries a slightly negative connotation, suggesting a lack of moderation or taste. It implies that something has crossed a boundary into being too much, often to the point of being conspicuous or even ridiculous. While not inherently a harsh criticism, it points to a deviation from the expected or desired level of restraint.
