tuttavallisemmin

Tuttavallisemmin is a Finnish word that translates to "more familiarly" or "more informally" in English. It is an adverbial form derived from the adjective "tuttavallinen," meaning "familiar." The word is used to describe a manner of speaking, interacting, or behaving in a way that is less formal and more akin to how one would interact with close acquaintances or friends.

The usage of tuttavallisemmin implies a softening of social distance. When someone speaks or acts tuttavallisemmin, they are likely employing a more relaxed tone, using colloquial language, or engaging in actions that would be considered too casual in a more formal setting. This can include using nicknames, sharing personal anecdotes more freely, or adopting a less reserved posture.

The concept behind tuttavallisemmin is rooted in Finnish social norms, where a certain degree of reserve is often maintained in initial interactions. As relationships develop, individuals may become more tuttavallinen, indicating a growing comfort and closeness. The adverbial form specifically describes the *act* of becoming more familiar or the *manner* in which familiarity is expressed. It is not a noun or a verb, but rather modifies how an action is performed.
