selektiivisemmän

Selektiivisemmän is a Finnish word that translates to "more selective" in English. It is the comparative form of the adjective "selektiivinen" (selective). This word is used to describe a situation, process, or entity that exhibits a higher degree of choice, discrimination, or specificity compared to another.

For example, one might say a company is becoming selektiivisemmän in its hiring practices, meaning it is applying stricter criteria and choosing candidates more carefully. In a scientific context, a reagent could be described as selektiivisemmän if it reacts with a specific target molecule while ignoring others more effectively than a less selective alternative. The concept of being selektiivisemmän can apply to various fields, including technology, biology, economics, and social sciences, always indicating an increased level of discernment or targeted action. The nuance lies in the comparison; something is always *more* selective than something else, or it is compared to a previous state of being less selective.
