rajallisestikin

The Finnish word "rajallisestikin" is an adverb that translates to "even with limitations," "within limits," or "limitedly." It is formed by combining the word "rajallinen," meaning "limited" or "finite," with the enclitic "-kin," which adds a sense of inclusion or emphasis, similar to "even" or "also."

"Rajallisestikin" is used to qualify a statement, indicating that something is true or occurring, but with certain constraints or boundaries. It suggests that while a situation might be a particular way, it's not necessarily without its restrictions. For instance, one might say that a resource is "rajallisestikin saatavilla," meaning it is available, but only within certain limits or in a finite quantity.

The adverb can also imply that something is happening to a limited extent or in a restricted manner. For example, "Hän ymmärsi rajallisestikin" could mean "He understood, even if only limitedly." The addition of "-kin" emphasizes that the limited understanding is still a form of understanding, or that the limited availability is still a form of availability. It acknowledges the existence of limitations while still asserting the presence of the described quality or action. Its usage often serves to provide a more nuanced and accurate description of a situation by acknowledging inherent constraints.
