kiinteämmät

Kiinteämmät is a Finnish comparative adjective form derived from kiinteä, meaning fixed, solid, or constant. The word expresses a higher degree of these qualities and is used when comparing two or more items or situations as being more fixed, stable, or durable than others.

Kiinteä can describe physical solidity, but also a figurative steadiness or permanence. In engineering or construction it often refers to structures or components that are stronger and more rigid. In everyday language it can describe more stable arrangements, agreements, or plans. The nuance depends on context: physically, kiinteämmät implies greater stiffness or rigidity; metaphorically, it can indicate more durable or established arrangements.

Morphology and usage: kiinteämmät is the nominative plural form of the comparative kiinteämpi. The basic singular form is kiinteämpi (more fixed/solid); the plural nominative is kiinteämmät (the more fixed/solid ones). The corresponding forms exist for other cases and numbers, for example kiinteämmän (genitive singular) or kiinteämmät (partitive plural) depending on sentence structure.
