momentaarisesti

Momentaarisesti is a Finnish adverb that translates to "momentarily" or "for a moment" in English. It refers to something that lasts or happens for a very short period of time, a brief instant. The word is derived from the noun "momentti," which means "moment." It is often used to describe a fleeting sensation, a temporary state, or an action that occurs quickly. For example, one might say that a pain was felt momentaarisesti, indicating that it was short-lived. Similarly, a thought could be described as occurring momentaarisesti if it passed through one's mind very briefly. The adverb emphasizes the ephemeral nature of the event or state it describes, highlighting its transient quality. It is a common word in everyday Finnish conversation and writing.
