pysähtymästä

Pysähtymästä is a Finnish word that translates to "from stopping" or "from ceasing." It is the elative case of the participle "pysähtynyt," which means "stopped" or "ceased." The elative case in Finnish indicates movement or origin from within something, so "pysähtymästä" implies a state or action that began after an initial stopping or cessation.

In practical use, "pysähtymästä" might describe a situation where something resumes after a pause. For example, a sentence could be constructed like "Juna lähti uudelleen liikkeelle pysähtymästä," meaning "The train started moving again from its stop." This emphasizes the transition from a state of being stopped to a state of motion.

The word can also be used metaphorically. It might refer to overcoming a period of stagnation or inactivity. For instance, "Hän toipui masennuksesta pysähtymästä," could imply that the person began to recover after a period of deep depression where their life felt like it had stopped. The nuance lies in the idea of originating or emerging from a state of stillness. Understanding the elative case is key to grasping the full meaning of "pysähtymästä," as it provides the directional context of origin.
