Aiheutetusta

Aiheutetusta is a Finnish inflected form derived from the verb aiheuttaa ("to cause"). Morphologically it combines the past participle aiheutettu ("caused") with the suffix -sta, which marks the elative or the semantic notion "from" or "about". In practical usage aiheutetusta commonly appears in noun phrases and postpositional constructions to indicate something originating in, caused by, or concerning what has been caused.

The term is frequent in formal, administrative and legal language, where it modifies nouns such as vahinko (damage), haitta (harm) and kustannus (cost). For example, korvaus aiheutetusta vahingosta translates as "compensation for the damage caused". As a participial adjective form, aiheutetusta agrees in case and number with the noun it describes and has related inflections like aiheutetun (genitive/accusative), aiheutetussa (inessive), and aiheutetulle (allative).

Semantically aiheutetusta conveys causation with an emphasis on the resulting state or item (for instance, a harmed object or incurred expense) rather than the agent. Synonyms or alternative constructions include aiheuttamasta (another participle-based form used with -sta) and passive or active clauses that explicitly state the cause. Usage notes: the form is standard Finnish and appropriate in formal writing; in spoken or colloquial contexts speakers may prefer simpler phrasing such as "jonkin aiheuttamasta" or active constructions.
