monimutkaisemmille

Monimutkaisemmille is a Finnish inflected form derived from the adjective monimutkainen, meaning “complicated.” It is the allative plural form of the comparative adjective monimutkaisempi, which means “more complicated.” The form can be understood as “to/for more complicated ones,” depending on the sentence context.

Morphology and usage: The base adjective is monimutkainen; its comparative is monimutkaisempi. When used with a plural noun in the allative case, the adjective takes the allative plural ending -ille, producing monimutkaisemmille. This demonstrates how Finnish adjectives agree with the noun they modify in case and number. Examples include monimutkaisemmille asioille (to more complicated matters) and monimutkaisemmille käyttäjille (for more complicated users).

Usage and context: Monimutkaisemmille is most commonly encountered in linguistic explanations, grammar descriptions, or language-learning materials that illustrate Finnish inflection. It is not a standalone lexical item with a fixed meaning beyond “more complicated” in a specific case and number; its value lies in showing how adjectives inflect to match a plural noun in the allative.
