tukkeutunutta

Tukkeutunutta is a Finnish word that translates to "clogged" or "congested" in English. It is a descriptive adjective used to indicate a blockage or obstruction in a passage or system. This can apply to a variety of situations, both literal and figurative.

In a physical sense, tukkeutunutta can describe a drain that is blocked by debris, a pipe that is obstructed, or even a road that is experiencing heavy traffic congestion. For example, one might say "viemäri on tukkeutunutta" to mean "the drain is clogged." Similarly, "tie on tukkeutunutta" would refer to a congested road.

Beyond physical blockages, tukkeutunutta can also be used metaphorically. It might describe a mind that is unable to think clearly or process information, perhaps due to stress or fatigue. In such a case, one could say their "ajattelu on tukkeutunutta" meaning "their thinking is congested." It can also refer to a situation where progress is stalled or hindered, such as a project that has become stuck and is no longer moving forward. The word conveys a sense of being held up, unable to flow freely.
