painottavasti

Painottavasti is a Finnish adverb that means “in an emphatic or stressed manner” and, in some contexts, “with greater weighting.” It is formed from the verb painottaa, which means to emphasize, stress, or assign more weight to something. The suffix -sti turns the expression into an adverb of manner.

In everyday Finnish, painottavasti describes how something is spoken or presented. For example, a speaker may say something painottavasti to highlight key points, or a writer may present a claim painottavasti to indicate its importance. The term signals that emphasis or importance is intended rather than describing a factual claim by itself.

In statistical or evaluative contexts, related concepts concern weighting. The noun painotus denotes weighting or emphasis, and painotettu refers to weighted values. While painottavasti can be used to describe the manner of presenting results or arguments, more precise technical language often uses phrases like painotetulla arvolla or painotetusti when referring to weighted analysis.

The word is common in Finnish dictionaries and corpora and is considered neutral to slightly emphatic in tone. It is closely related to other emphasis synonyms such as korostetusti and painokkaasti, which convey similar senses of emphasis or forcefulness.
