tuhatmäärin

Tuhatmäärin is a Finnish word that translates to "thousandth" in English. It is used to denote a fraction where the numerator is 1 and the denominator is 1000. In mathematical terms, it is represented as 1/1000 or 0.001. The term is derived from the Finnish words "tuhat," meaning thousand, and "määrin," meaning fraction or part.

In everyday language, tuhatmäärin is often used to describe something that is very small or insignificant in comparison to a whole. For example, a tuhatmäärin of a liter is one milliliter. It is also used in financial contexts to describe a very small percentage, such as a 0.1% interest rate, which can be referred to as a tuhatmäärin interest rate.

The concept of tuhatmäärin is not unique to Finnish and is found in many languages around the world. It is a useful tool in mathematics and everyday life for expressing small quantities in a precise and concise manner.
