tasaarvoisempia

Tasaarvoisempia is a Finnish adjective form meaning more egalitarian or more equal. It is the plural partitive form of the comparative adjective tasaarvoisempi, which describes something as being more aligned with equality in rights, opportunities, or treatment compared to another reference.

Etymology and form: the word combines the root tasa-arvo (equality) with the suffix -inen to form tasaarvoinen (egalitarian), and the comparative suffix -isempi to indicate a higher degree of that quality. In plural context, tasaarvoisempia is used before plural nouns in the partitive or other cases where the object is indefinite or not fully specified (for example, tasaarvoisempia ratkaisuja, more egalitarian solutions).

Usage: tasaarvoisempia appears mainly in formal, academic, or policy-related Finnish discourse. It is common in debates about social reform, gender equality, education, pay equity, and resource distribution, where speakers compare different options or frameworks and describe one as more egalitarian than another. It is less likely to be used in everyday casual speech, but may appear in news reporting, policy documents, and opinion pieces.

Examples: tasaarvoisempia ratkaisuja (more egalitarian solutions), tasaarvoisempia käytäntöjä (more egalitarian practices), tasaarvoisempia mahdollisuuksia (more equal opportunities).
