kolmekymmentäviisi

Kolmekymmentäviisi is the Finnish cardinal number that represents the value 35. It is formed by combining kolmekymmentä (thirty) with viisi (five) and is used for counting, ages, quantities, and similar expressions.

Etymology and orthography: The construction follows the Finnish rule of tens plus units for numbers from 21 to 99. kolmekymmentäviisi is typically written as a single closed compound in standard Finnish orthography. The tens part kolmekymmentä itself comes from kolme (three) and kymmentä (tens), with the unit part viisi. When used with a noun, the number usually remains unchanged while the accompanying noun is inflected, for example, kolmekymmentäviisi vuotta vanha.

Usage: Kolmekymmentäviisi denotes the amount thirty-five and can describe age, quantity, or order in everyday language. In formal text, both spelled-out forms and digits may appear depending on style guidelines; kolmekymmentäviisi is the common written form in full-number contexts, while 35 is frequently used in tables or technical writing.
