olennaisimpia

Olennaisimpia is a Finnish adjective form meaning the most essential things or elements. It is used to indicate priority or central importance within a set of items, concepts, or considerations. The form itself is not a standalone noun but an inflected adjective that accompanies a noun, often in plural or partitive form, to highlight what is most important.

Linguistic note: olennaisimpia is the partitive plural form of the superlative adjective olennaisimmat, which denotes the highest degree of essentiality. In practical use, you will commonly see phrases such as olennaisimpia asioita (the most essential things) or olennaisimmat kysymykset (the most essential questions). The word remains common in formal, analytical, or planning contexts, but it also appears in journalistic and policy writing where prioritization is discussed.

Usage and examples: In discussions of priorities, olennaisimpia is used to foreground core concerns. For example, in a project brief: "Olennaisimpia tavoitteita ovat kestävyys ja käyttäjäkokemus." In a policy debate: "Olennaisimmat kysymykset ovat turvallisuus, oikeudenmukaisuus ja taloudellinen kestävyys." These constructions illustrate how the term functions to single out central considerations among many.

See also: olennaisuus, olennainen, olennaisimmat. The term is a standard part of Finnish descriptive language and does not denote a named organization, movement, or proper noun.
