vakaimmat

Vakaimmat is a Finnish plural superlative form of the adjective vakaa, meaning the most stable or most secure among a group. It is used to describe plural nouns that are considered the most stable in a given context, or can function as a noun phrase referring to the most stable ones.

In Finnish grammar, adjectives have degrees of comparison. The superlative plural form of vakaa is vakaimmat. It agrees with the noun in number, and can be used in attributive position (vakaimmat vaihtoehdot) or predicatively (Nämä vaihtoehdot ovat vakaimmat). The form also allows the sense of “the most stable ones” when used without a following noun, in contexts where the group is understood from prior reference.

Usage and context: Vakaimmat frequently appears in economic, technical, and scientific settings to highlight stability relative to other options or conditions. Common collocations include vakaimmat sijoitukset (the most stable investments), vakaimmat ratkaisut (the most stable solutions), or vakaammat määrälliset arviot contrasted with less stable alternatives. The term carries a nuanced connotation of low risk, predictability, and resilience within a specified comparison.

See also: vakaa, vakaus, stabiliteetti. Examples illustrate how vakaimmat functions as a descriptor for the most stable items within a defined set, and as a shorthand for “the most stable ones” in discourse.
