monimutkistun

Monimutkistun is a Finnish verb form meaning “I become more complicated” or “I grow more complex.” It is the first-person singular present indicative form of the intransitive verb monimutkaistua, which describes a process in which a situation, explanation, system, or understanding becomes increasingly intricate over time.

Etymology and form: The verb monimutkaistua is derived from the adjective monimutkainen (complicated) with the derivational suffix -istua, used to express becoming or developing a state. Monimutkistun, as the present tense form, reflects a subjective change occurring to the speaker or the speaker’s experience of a situation.

Usage: Monimutkistun is typically used to describe a gradual increase in complexity from the perspective of the speaker. It often appears in discussions of plans, arguments, procedures, or information that accumulates new interdependencies. The subject of the sentence is the one experiencing the change; the verb is intransitive and does not take a direct object.

Conjugation (present tense): minä monimutkistun, sinä monimutkistut, hän monimutkistuu, me monimutkistumme, te monimutkistutte, he monimutkistuvat.
