keskeneräiseltä

keskeneräiseltä is the adessive plural form of the Finnish word keskeneräinen. Keskeneräinen translates to "unfinished," "incomplete," or "imperfect" in English. Therefore, "keskeneräiseltä" describes a state of being unfinished or incomplete as experienced by multiple entities or in a particular context.

This grammatical form would be used when referring to something that is not yet finished or is in a state of being worked on, and this unfinished nature is affecting multiple things or is viewed from a particular perspective. For example, one might say that a group of projects is "keskeneräiseltä" if they are all still in progress and not yet completed. The adessive case often indicates a manner, cause, or instrument, so "keskeneräiseltä" could imply that something is being approached or perceived *from the perspective of* being unfinished.

The word itself is composed of "kesken," meaning "in the middle of" or "unfinished," and the adjectival suffix "-eräinen." The plural form "keskeneräiset" refers to multiple unfinished things. When the adessive case ending "-ltä" is added to this plural form, it creates "keskeneräiseltä." This linguistic construction highlights the ongoing nature of processes or the state of incompletion within a given context.
