terveydellekin

terveydellekin is a Finnish word that translates roughly to "for health too" or "also for health." It is often used in contexts where a positive outcome for one's well-being is being discussed as an additional benefit to something else. For example, someone might say that exercising is good for the mind, and also for health too, emphasizing that the physical health benefits are a welcome addition to the mental ones.

The word is a combination of "terveys" meaning health, and the suffix "-llekin," which indicates "to" or "for" with the addition of "kin," meaning "also" or "too." This grammatical construction allows for the nuanced expression of an accompanying benefit. It suggests that while a primary advantage might be recognized, the health-related advantage is also noteworthy and appreciated.

The usage of terveydellekin is quite common in everyday Finnish conversation, particularly when discussing lifestyle choices, hobbies, or even consumption habits. It can be employed in situations ranging from dietary discussions, where eating a certain food might be praised for its taste and also for its health benefits, to leisure activities that offer both enjoyment and positive impacts on physical or mental health. The word serves to acknowledge and highlight this secondary, yet significant, positive aspect.
