puhtaammin

Puhtaammin is a Finnish word that functions as the comparative adverb meaning “more cleanly” or “more pure.” It is formed from the adjective puhdas (clean, pure) by adding the comparative suffix -mmin, a common pattern for adverbial comparatives in Finnish.

Use of puhtaammin is to describe actions or states performed with greater cleanliness or thoroughness, or to compare two situations in terms of cleanliness or purity. It often appears in sentences about washing, handling, or processing where the degree of cleanliness is being contrasted.

Example: Hän pesee ikkunan puhtaammin kuin viime viikolla. (He washes the window more cleanly than last week.)

The word is primarily a linguistic or descriptive term and is used in neutral, factual writing to indicate a higher degree of cleanliness or purity in comparison. It is uncommon outside contexts that discuss cleanliness, hygiene, or quality and is not typically used as a noun or in fixed expressions.
