yleisin

Yleisin is the superlative form of the Finnish adjective yleinen, meaning "the most common" or "general."

Etymology and related forms: The root yleis- comes from a Proto-Finnic meaning "general" and yields words such as yleinen, yleisesti, and yleisö. The word appears in various compounds to convey generality or widespread occurrence.

Capitalization and usage note: In Finnish spelling, yleisin is written lowercase unless it starts a sentence or appears as a proper noun. A capitalized form Yleisin would typically indicate a surname, brand, or other specific proper noun, but there is no widely recognized entity by that name.
