kotihälyttävän

The Finnish word "kotihälyttävän" is an adverb that translates to "alarmingly at home" or "alarmingly common." It is derived from the noun "koti" (home) and the verb "hälyttää" (to alarm or signal). The suffix "-vän" indicates an adverbial form.

"Kotihälyttävän" is used to describe a situation or phenomenon that is surprisingly prevalent or widespread, often within a domestic or familiar context. It implies that something which might be expected to be unusual or infrequent is instead occurring with a notable degree of regularity. The term carries a sense of mild surprise or even concern about the commonness of something.

For example, one might say that a certain type of minor accident is "kotihälyttävän" common in households, meaning it happens more often than one would ideally expect within the home environment. Similarly, a behavioral pattern or a specific problem could be described as "kotihälyttävän" prevalent among a certain group of people if it is found to be surprisingly widespread within that group, implying a shared or common experience. The usage emphasizes the unexpected frequency of something in a familiar setting.
