korreloituneessa

Korreloituneessa is an inflected form of the Finnish verb korreloida, which means "to polish" or "to refine." The term functions primarily as a nominalized participle that denotes a state or condition in which something has been polished or carefully finished. In practical use it often describes material surfaces, craftsmanship, or aesthetic qualities, such as in glassware, metalwork, or clothing.

The word derives from the root korre- (to treat or care for) combined with the participle suffix –to, forming korreloitunut ("polished") and its adjective form korreloituneessa. It is synonymous with similar participial nouns like korrelooninen or korreloon, though korreloituneessa emphasizes the final, refined state.

In literary contexts korreloituneessa may serve as a metaphorical description of a well-schooled or elegant character. Several Finnish dictionaries include the entry under noun categories derived from verbs with participial endings. The word is standard in contemporary Finnish and is typically encountered within phrases rather than by itself.
