puoltavasti

Puoltavasti is a Finnish word that translates to "partially" or "in part" in English. It is used to indicate that something is not entirely or completely true, present, or applicable. The word functions as an adverb, modifying verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs to convey a limited or incomplete degree.

For example, one might say that a statement is puoltavasti true, meaning it is only partly accurate. Similarly, a situation could be described as puoltavasti resolved, indicating that some issues remain unaddressed. The concept of puoltavasti emphasizes a state of being neither wholly one thing nor wholly another, but rather existing in a middle ground. This term is frequently encountered in everyday Finnish conversation and written materials, contributing to the nuanced expression of degrees and extent. Its usage allows for a more precise description of situations that do not fit into absolute categories.
