aggregoimalla

Aggregoimalla is a Finnish linguistic term that refers to the act of aggregating data, metrics, or observations. Generally used in data analysis, statistics, and reporting, aggregoimalla describes performing calculations on groups of data to produce summarized results such as totals, averages, or counts, rather than inspecting individual records.

Etymology and form: Derived from aggregoida (to aggregate) with the -malla suffix forming the instrumental gerund, aggregoimalla literally means “by aggregating.” It is used to express the method by which results are obtained or described.

Usage: Common in Finnish technical writing and data-centric contexts; often paired with nouns like tietoja, mittareita, or aikaväli to specify what is aggregated. It contrasts with aggregointi (the act of aggregation) and yhdistäminen (merging).

Examples: Raportti laadittiin aggregoimalla kuukausittaisia myyntilukuja – “The report was prepared by aggregating monthly sales figures.” Aggregoimalla dataa eri aikaväleiltä voidaan havaita pitkän aikavälin trendejä – “By aggregating data across different time intervals, long-term trends can be observed.”
