vähännäköistä
Vähännäköistä is a Finnish colloquial adjective in the partitive singular form used to describe something that looks meager, unattractive, or unremarkable in its appearance. It is a compound of vähäinen (small, meager) and näköinen (looking, having appearance). The term signals that the visual impression of the subject is less than desirable, without making a claim about its intrinsic quality. It often conveys mild criticism or irony and tends to appear in informal speech, blog posts, reviews, and social media rather than formal writing.
Grammatical notes: The base form is vähännäköinen (nominative), while the partitive singular is vähännäköistä; other inflections
Nuances and alternatives: Depending on context, synonyms might include epäsiisti ulkoasu, vaatimaton, yksinkertainen, tylsä, or aliarvostava
