Kasvu is a noun meaning “growth,” derived from the verb kasvaa (“to grow”).
Kasvi, on the other hand, means “plant.” They look similar but are completely different words.
Nopea is an adjective describing the subject through the verb olla.
Nopeasti is an adverb and would modify a verb directly—e.g. kasvu kiihtyy nopeasti (“growth accelerates quickly”).
Flip the verb and subject to make a yes/no question:
Onko kasvu nopea?
Use the negative verb ei and put the predicate adjective in the partitive case:
Kasvu ei ole nopeaa.
(In negative clauses, the object or predicate takes partitive.)
Replace the adjective stem ending –ea with –empi:
nopea → nopeampi
You can say: Kasvu on nopeampi (“growth is faster”) or nopeampi kasvu (“faster growth”).
Take the comparative nopeampi and add –in:
nopeampi → nopein
Then you get Kasvu on nopein (“growth is the fastest”) or nopein kasvu (“the fastest growth”).
