yhtäaikaisella

Yhtäaikaisella is a Finnish word that translates to "simultaneously" or "concurrently" in English. It is an adverb used to describe actions or events happening at the same time. The word is derived from the Finnish word "yhtä" meaning "one" or "equal," and "aika" meaning "time."

In everyday Finnish, "yhtäaikaisella" is used in a variety of contexts. For instance, one might say "He saapuivat yhtäaikaisella" which means "They arrived simultaneously." It can also be used to describe parallel processes, such as "Kaksi prosessia tapahtui yhtäaikaisella" meaning "Two processes happened concurrently." The concept of simultaneity is important in many fields, including physics, where it relates to events occurring at the same instant, and in computing, where concurrent processes can execute in parallel.

The grammatical form "yhtäaikaisella" is the adessive case of the adjective "yhtäaikainen" (simultaneous). This case often indicates location, means, or manner. Therefore, "yhtäaikaisella" can also be interpreted as "by means of being simultaneous" or "in a simultaneous manner." Understanding this grammatical nuance helps in comprehending its precise usage within Finnish sentences.
