Hiukkas is a Finnish term that can be translated as "particle" or "a small piece of matter." In ordinary and scientific Finnish, the noun hiukkanen is used for a particle, while hiukkas often appears as a productive stem in compounds and in technical terminology to form neologisms that relate to granular or discrete units.

In addition to its common-linguistic use, Hiukkas can function as a proper noun in Finnish contexts. It may appear as a surname and is occasionally adopted as a brand name, project title, or fictional entity. When used as a name, Hiukkas typically carries connotations of precision, science, or micro-scale phenomena, reflecting its root meaning.

Because Hiukkas is not tied to a single widely documented subject, its exact reference depends on context. If you encounter Hiukkas in a scientific text, it is usually a derivative or stylized form related to particles.
