kastua

Kastua is a term with limited use in general reference works. In Finnish, kastua is a verb meaning to become wet or damp, typically used to describe surfaces, clothing, or ground after exposure to moisture such as rain or immersion. The form is used in weather descriptions and in idiomatic expressions about moisture.

As a toponym, Kastua has appeared as the name of small localities in areas with Finnish linguistic influence. These places are generally small and not widely documented in major gazetteers, and they may be found in regional maps or local records rather than national databases.

In some cases, Kastua appears as a surname or personal name in genealogical or regional records, though it is not widespread. The term can thus appear in diverse contexts, including historical records, maps, and local histories.

In reference works, Kastua is not a single prominent topic; if you encounter the term, determine by context whether it refers to the verb, a place, or a person. Without additional qualifiers, the meaning remains ambiguous and requires contextual clarification.
