jännitteellisiä

Jännitteellisiä is a Finnish adjective form used to describe things that are tense or fraught with tension. It is the partitive plural form of the adjective jännitteellinen, which is built from the noun jännite (tension or voltage) with the suffix -ellinen meaning “characterized by” or “related to.” The core meaning of jännitteellinen is “tense,” “strained,” or “charged with tension,” and jännitteellisiä is used when describing plural nouns in the partitive case, for example jännitteellisiä tilanteita (tense situations) or jännitteellisiä hetkiä (tense moments).

In everyday and literary Finnish, jännitteellisiä is a common descriptor for social, political, or narrative contexts where tension is a defining quality. The term emphasizes tension or conflict rather than a neutral state. It is not primarily a technical term; in contexts relating to electricity or electronics, other formulations are more typical, and jännitteellinen is seldom used to describe technical conditions.

Grammatically, jännitteellisiä is the partitive plural form; related forms include jännitteelliset (nominative plural), jännitteellinen (singular nominative), and various case endings such as jännitteellisiä (partitive), jännitteellisten (genitive), and so on. The word thus signals a qualitative evaluation of perceived tension, not a precise measurement.
