While 'meningsfull' often implies purpose, 'purposeful' (formålstjenlig) can be more about efficiency or suitability for a task rather than deep personal significance.
Something 'meningsfull' is usually significant, but not everything 'significant' (betydelig, viktig) carries the same personal depth or inner value as 'meningsfull'.
An impactful event (virkningfull) might also be meaningful, but 'impactful' focuses on the effect, whereas 'meningsfull' focuses on the inherent value or significance.
