liikkumisten

Liikkumisten is a Finnish noun form used to refer to movements or motions in a plural, often within academic or analytic writing. The base concept comes from the verb liikkua (to move) and the noun liikkuminen (movement, motion). In its genitive plural, liikkumisten is typically found in phrases that describe relationships to multiple movements, such as the study, characteristics, or variation of movements.

In grammar, liikkumisten is the genitive plural of liikkuminen and thus functions to indicate possession or association with several movements. For example, liikkumisten tutkimus means the study of movements, liikkumisten variaatio refers to the variation among movements, and liikkumisten vaikutus denotes the effect of movements. The form is most common in formal, descriptive, or analytical contexts, while the ordinary plural liikkumiset may be used when the reference is simply to several movements without a genitive relationship.

Usage contexts for liikkumisten include biomechanics, dance analysis, and philosophy of action, where discussions may contrast different movement patterns, sequences, or dynamics. The term helps to frame discussions around multiple movements as a collective or relational concept rather than a single instance of motion.
