nopeutettujen
Nopeutettujen is a Finnish term formed from the verb nopeuttaa, meaning to speed up or accelerate. As a participial adjective used in the genitive plural, nopeutettujen refers to a group that has undergone acceleration or to items connected with acceleration. It is not a fixed technical term; its exact meaning depends on the noun it modifies.
In Finnish, there is no separate noun for “the accelerated ones,” so speakers combine the past participle
- Nopeutettujen hakemusten määrä kasvoi viime vuodesta. (The number of accelerated applications rose from last year.)
- Tutkimus tarkasteli nopeutettujen ohjelmien tehokkuutta kahdessa pilotissa. (The study examined the effectiveness of the accelerated programs
- Nopea eteneminen vaikutti nopeutettujen opiskelijoiden kokemuksiin. (The rapid progression affected the experiences of the accelerated students.)
Etymology: the form is built from nopeuttaa plus the -ettu past participle suffix, with the plural/genitive
