taottava

Finnish

Etymology

From the verb takoa (to forge).

Pronunciation

  • Hyphenation: ta‧ot‧ta‧va
  • Rhymes: -ɑʋɑ
  • IPA(key): /ˈtɑotːɑʋɑ/

Adjective

taottava (comparative taottavampi, superlative taottavin)

  1. (metallurgy) malleable (capable to be shaped by hammering, or by pressure)

Usage notes

  • Comparative and superlative could be formed according to normal rules, but in practice they are replaced by other expressions such as helpommin (more easily) taottava, helpoiten (most easily) taottava.
  • The term takokelpoinen appears in many net dictionaries as a synonym. However, it appears to be a neologism created by some well-meaning editor.
