maailmanlaajuisestikin

Maailmanlaajuisestikin is a Finnish adverb formed from the adjective maailmanlaajuinen (worldwide) with the adverbial suffix -sti and the particle -kin, which adds emphasis similar to “even.” The result expresses that something applies on a global scale and, often, that this global reach exceeds expectations or standard scope. It is typically used in written Finnish, especially in formal or rhetorical contexts, to underline global relevance or impact.

The phrase functions as an adverb and can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. Its use tends to signal cross-border or international significance, sometimes in contrast to more narrowly scoped statements. Because of its emphasis, it is more common in journalism, academic writing, and policy discussions than in everyday spoken language.

Examples illustrate its nuance. For instance: “Tutkimusaihe kiinnostaa maailmanlaajuisestikin.” “Yritykset ovat laajentaneet toimintansa maailmanlaajuisestikin viime vuosina.” “Tiedonvaihto tapahtuu maailmanlaajuisestikin nopeasti digitalisaation vuoksi.” In each case, the word stresses that the phenomenon extends beyond a single country or region to a global level.

Etymologically, maailmanlaajuinen derives from maailma (world) and laajuinen (wide), while -sti forms the adverb and -kin adds inclusive or emphatic meaning. Related terms include maailmanlaajuinen, maailmanlaajuus, and maailmanlaajuistuminen, which describe global scope, extent, or globalization more broadly.
