muodollisemmiksi

The Finnish word "muodollisemmiksi" is the allative plural form of the adjective "muodollinen". "Muodollinen" translates to "formal" or "official" in English. Therefore, "muodollisemmiksi" signifies "into more formal" or "towards more official".

This word is used to describe a transition or movement towards a state of increased formality. For example, in a social context, a conversation might become "muodollisemmiksi" if the participants start using more polite language and adhere to stricter social protocols. Similarly, a process could be described as becoming "muodollisemmiksi" if it moves from an informal arrangement to one that requires official documentation or adherence to established procedures.

The suffix "-mmiksi" indicates a comparative degree and the allative case, suggesting movement or change *into* something. This implies a process of becoming, rather than simply being. Understanding "muodollisemmiksi" requires recognizing both the comparative aspect (more formal) and the directional aspect (moving towards that state).
