ennustettavampia

Ennustettavampia is a Finnish term used to describe multiple things that are more predictable or forecastable than others. It is the plural partitive form of the comparative adjective ennustettavampi, and it appears when the noun it modifies is in the partitive case or when referring to several items in a general, non-count sense. The concept arises primarily in analytical or scientific writing, such as forecasting studies, risk assessments, and data analyses, where different phenomena, models, or datasets are compared for their degree of predictability.

In usage, ennustettavampia is most commonly found in formal Finnish rather than everyday speech. Typical contexts include phrases like ennustettavampia ilmiöitä, meaning “more forecastable phenomena,” or ennustettavampia malleja, meaning “more forecastable models.” The form signals a comparative assessment across several items rather than a single object.

Etymology and morphology are rooted in the Finnish system for forming comparatives and the partitive plural. The base idea comes from ennustettavaa (to be forecasted or predictable) and is expanded with the comparative suffix -mpi to yield ennustettavampi; when describing several items in partitive, the form ennustettavampia is used.
