erityyppisistä

Erityyppisistä is a Finnish grammatical form of the adjective erityyppinen, which means “of a particular type” or “of various types.” The word is used to describe nouns in terms of typology or classification, often in technical, academic, or descriptive prose.

Etymology and morphology: erityyppinen combines eri- (“different”) with tyyppi (“type”) and the adjectival suffix -inen. Like other -inen adjectives, it inflects for case and number. The form erityyppisistä is one of the inflected endings and commonly appears in phrases where the meaning is “from various types” or “of various types” in the plural, such as elative plural or related cases, depending on sentence structure.

Usage: erityyppisistä tends to appear in contexts that require typological distinctions, such as classification of objects, phenomena, or data. It can be used attributively with a following noun (erityyppiset ratkaisut = solutions of different/particular types) or within noun phrases to indicate origin or association with multiple types (erityyppisistä lähteistä = from various sources of types). The term is common in scientific, engineering, and qualitative analyses where distinctions between categories are important.

Relation to related terms: erityyppinen is part of a broader family of adjectives describing type or form, alongside synonyms like monenlaatuinen, erilainen, or monistyyppinen, depending on nuance. The choice of term depends on whether the emphasis is on diversity of types, specificity to a single type, or a mixture of categories.

Examples: Erityyppisiä ratkaisuja showed different-type solutions; Tiedot kerättiin erityyppisistä lähteistä illustrated gathering information from sources of various types.
