tehdäkkäen

Tehdäkkäen is a Finnish word that functions as a comparative adverb. It is derived from the verb "tehdä," which means "to do" or "to make." The suffix "-kkäen" is an adverbial ending that indicates a comparative degree. Therefore, "tehdäkkäen" translates to "doing more" or "making more."

This adverb is used to express that an action is performed with greater intensity, frequency, or diligence than before, or more so than another action. It can also imply a sense of undertaking something with more effort or commitment. For example, one might say "Hän työskentelee tehdäkkäen tämän projektin parissa," meaning "He is working more diligently on this project." The comparison can be explicit or implicit, depending on the context.

While not as commonly used as some other comparative adverbs, "tehdäkkäen" offers a nuanced way to describe an increased level of activity or effort in Finnish. Its usage is generally limited to situations where the comparative aspect of "doing" is specifically emphasized. It is a less frequent construction compared to using phrases like "enemmän" (more) with the verb.
