kiihdyksissä

Kiihdyksissä is a Finnish term that translates to "in a frenzy," "excitedly," or "heatedly" in English. It describes a state of heightened emotion, often characterized by rapid speech, increased energy, and a sense of urgency or agitation. This state can be triggered by various circumstances, including intense joy, anger, fear, or anticipation.

In everyday Finnish conversation, kiihdyksissä is used to depict someone who is speaking very quickly and passionately, possibly without much pause for thought. It suggests a loss of composure due to strong feelings. For instance, someone might be described as "puhui kiihdyksissä" (spoke in a frenzy) if they were conveying information with great speed and emotional intensity.

The term can also imply a sense of being overwhelmed or driven by impulses. While it doesn't necessarily carry a negative connotation, it often indicates a situation where clear, rational thought might be temporarily suspended due to the powerful emotions at play. It's a vivid description of someone caught up in the momentum of their feelings, making them appear animated and potentially less controlled.
