luonnollisemman

Luonnollisemman is the genitive singular form of the Finnish comparative adjective luonnollisempi, meaning “more natural.” In Finnish, adjectives decline to agree with the noun they modify in person, number and case. The form luonnollisemman appears when the modified noun is in the genitive singular, or in constructions where the corresponding noun is in genitive.

The usage of luonnollisemman is mainly seen in phrases describing a more natural attribute of something, often in a comparative context. Common examples include: luonnollisemman vaikutelman, meaning “a more natural impression,” and luonnollisemman näköinen ilme, meaning “a more natural-looking appearance.” In other contexts, the attributive phrase can also be seen before other nouns in genitive, always aligning with Finnish grammar rules for attributive adjectives.

Etymology and meaning: luonnollinen comes from luonto (nature) and conveys naturalness or natural-looking quality. The comparative form luonnollisempi expresses that one thing has a higher degree of naturalness than another, and its genitive singular form luonnollisemman is used to modify a following noun in genitive or in related constructions.

Notes: The most common everyday constructions often use the base comparative muodossa luonnollisempi directly before a noun (for example, luonnollisempi ilme). The genitive form luonnollisemman is required when the noun being described is in genitive case, or in phrases where the noun is governed by a genitive structure. As with other Finnish comparatives, luonnollisempi is the base form; luonnollisemman is its inflected genitive singular counterpart.
