sisättämän

Sisättämän is a Finnish verb that translates to "to internalize," "to assimilate," or "to incorporate." It describes the process of taking something from outside and making it a part of oneself, whether that be knowledge, a belief, a habit, or a physical substance.

In a cognitive context, sisättämän refers to learning and understanding information to the point where it becomes a natural part of one's own thought processes. For example, a student might sisättämän historical facts to understand their significance. In a social context, it can mean adopting the values or customs of a group. A newcomer to a culture might gradually sisättämän its traditions.

The verb can also be used in a more literal, biological sense, referring to the body's absorption of nutrients or other substances. For instance, the digestive system works to sisättämän food. Figuratively, it can imply the inclusion or integration of something into a larger whole, such as a company sisättämän a new department. The core idea across these uses is the transformation of something external into an internal component.
