alhaisemmat

Alhaisemmat is a Finnish adjective form meaning "lower" or "more low." It is the plural comparative form of alhaisempi, the comparative degree of the adjective alhainen ("low" or "base"). The form is used to compare two or more items and state that the referenced items are at a lower level, degree, price, or rank than others.

In ordinary usage, alhaisemmat precedes a plural noun to describe a lower quantity or level. Examples: alhaisemmat hinnat (lower prices); alhaisemmat palkat (lower wages); alhaisemmat arvosanat (lower grades). It can also function as a predicate in a sentence: Hinnat ovat alhaisemmat tänä vuonna kuin viime vuonna.

The word is grammatical in Finnish and reflects standard comparative morphology: alhaisen + -empi yields alhaisempi, whose plural nominative is alhaisemmat. Its use indicates relative comparison, not an absolute value. It should not be confused with alhaiset, which describes things that are generally low rather than comparatively lower in a given context.

In summary, alhaisemmat is a common form in Finnish for signaling that multiple items are lower in price, level, or other measurable attribute compared with reference items.
