untuvallisempi

Untuvallisempi is a Finnish comparative adjective meaning more downy or fluffier. It describes something that has a greater amount of down, fluff, or soft, fuzzy texture, such as fabrics, fillings, fur, or plumage. The base adjective is untuvallinen, which conveys a generally downy or fluffy quality, and untuvallisempi is used to indicate a higher degree of that quality.

Etymology and formation: The word is formed from untuva (down, fluff) and the adjectival suffix -llinen to yield untuvallinen (downy). The comparative form, untuvallisempi, is created by adding the standard Finnish comparative ending to the adjective, indicating a higher degree of the downy characteristic.

Usage: Untuvallisempi is commonly used in descriptions of textiles and garments, bedding, or animal fur and feathers where the amount of down or the softness is being compared. For example, a jacket described as untuvallisempi than another model is characterized as having more down filling or a fluffier exterior. In a sentence: "Tämä untuvallisempi takki on lämpimämpi kuin edellinen malli" translates to "This more downy jacket is warmer than the previous model." The term can also appear in consumer product descriptions, fur and feather studies, or literary descriptions emphasizing texture.
