irrotettu

Irrotettu is a Finnish term functioning as a past participle and adjective meaning “detached” or “removed.” It is formed from the verb irrota, which means to detach or to remove from a location, object, or attachment. The word is commonly used in technical, mechanical, and everyday contexts to indicate that something has been separated from something else.

Usage and examples

Irrotettu describes objects that have been separated from another object or system. For example, irrotettu ruuvi refers to a screw that has been detached from a surface, and irrotetut johdot can describe wires that have been disconnected. In everyday language, you might hear or read phrases like “ruuvi on irrotettu” (the screw has been detached). The term is versatile and appears in manuals, instructions, and descriptions where removal or separation is involved.
