näissäkin

Näissäkin is a Finnish word formed by combining the demonstrative pronoun näissä (the inessive plural form of nämä, meaning in these) with the enclitic particle -kin, which adds the sense “also” or “too.” The result is used to express that something applies not only to other items or situations but also to the items or situations in question.

Morphologically, näissäkin consists of the base näissä and the affix -kin. The particle -kin attaches to a case-form of a demonstrative pronoun to emphasize inclusion or contrast. In practice, näissäkin often replaces the phrase myös näissä or näissäkin is used when the speaker wants to highlight that a point extends to the current set of items.

Usage notes:

- Näissäkin typically appears in written Finnish, including journalism, essays, and academic prose, but it can occur in formal speech as well.

- It conveys nuance beyond a simple “also” by signaling that the included items share a characteristic or outcome with others already discussed.

- It is a contrastive or emphatic construction, often referring back to previously mentioned groups or examples.

Examples:

- Näissäkin kuvissa on samoja piirteitä kuin aiemmin nähtiin. (There are the same features in these pictures as were seen earlier.)

- Näissäkin tapauksissa ratkaisu on sama. (In these cases as well, the solution is the same.)

- Näissäkin julkaisuissa toistuvat samat virheet. (The same mistakes recur in these publications as well.)

Translation note:

- The base meaning is “in these as well” or “even in these,” and English equivalents often require rephrasing to capture the emphasis and contrast conveyed by -kin.
