arkisemmankin

arkisemmankin is a Finnish word that translates roughly to "even the mundane" or "even the ordinary" in English. It is an inflectional form of the word "arkinen," which means everyday, ordinary, or mundane. The "-kin" suffix in Finnish is an enclitic particle that adds emphasis, often conveying a sense of "also," "too," or "even."

Therefore, "arkisemmankin" is used to highlight that something, which might typically be considered unremarkable or common, is being discussed or emphasized. It suggests that even within the realm of the ordinary, there is something noteworthy or significant. For example, one might say "jopa arkiisemmankin asian voi tehdä kiinnostavaksi," which translates to "even the more mundane matter can be made interesting." This usage implies that while the subject is generally considered boring, there's a possibility of finding or creating interest within it. The word's flexibility allows it to be applied in various contexts where emphasis is placed on the ordinary or common. It is a common element in conversational Finnish, adding nuance to statements about everyday life and experiences.
