keskikorkuisia

Keskikorkuisia is a Finnish adjective form meaning “of medium height” or “medium-sized,” used to describe nouns that are neither tall nor short within their context. It is the partitive plural form of keskikorkuinen, an adjective that expresses average height.

In Finnish grammar, keskikorkuinen modifies nouns and agrees with them in number and case. The form keskikorkuisia appears most commonly when describing multiple items in a partitive context, for example with indefinite quantities or when the object is the target of an action. Examples include keskikorkuisia puita (medium-height trees), keskikorkuisia pensaita (medium-height hedges), and keskikorkuisia rakennuksia (medium-height buildings).

Usage and context tend to be domain-specific. The term is frequently found in horticulture, landscaping, forestry, and urban planning, where height classifications help categorize plantings, streetscapes, or architectural groups. Because “medium height” is relative, the exact interpretation of keskikorkuisia depends on species, location, or planning standards.

Etymology and related forms: keskikorkuinen combines keskiko- (middle/central) with korkuinen (height-related), producing a flexible descriptor across different categories. While there are comparative and superlative forms in Finnish (eg., keskikorkuisempi, keskikorkeimpia), keskikorkuisia is primarily a plural partitive form used in descriptive phrases.

Overall, keskikorkuisia serves as a concise, neutral descriptor for objects within an average height range in Finnish-language contexts.
