tasomaisen

Tasomaisen is the genitive singular form of the Finnish adjective tasomainen, meaning level, even, or uniform. The word describes surfaces, landscapes, or qualities that are flat or regular, and it can also be used metaphorically to convey monotony or evenness in non-physical contexts. The root taso means level or plane, and the suffix -mainen forms adjectives that indicate a quality related to that root.

In usage, tasomaisen appears in contexts such as geological descriptions or architectural analyses, where one might refer to tasomaisen maaston or tasomaisen rakennuksen to indicate flat terrain or a uniformly aligned façade. It is less common in everyday speech than more general adjectives like tasainen, and it tends to appear in formal, technical, or literary prose. The broader family includes tasainen (even), tasomaisuus (evenness or flatness), and related compounds.

Etymology and inflection: tasomainen derives from taso + mainen; tasomaisen is the genitive singular form of tasomainen. As with other -mainen adjectives, it agrees with the noun it modifies in case and number.
