Ajettavat

Ajettavat is a Finnish adjective form meaning drivable or able to be driven. It is the plural form of ajettava, which is derived from the verb ajaa, “to drive” or “to move,” and the participial suffix -ttava. In use, ajettava describes objects or devices that can be propelled or operated, typically by a motor or an operator.

In Finnish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in number and case. For example, with a plural noun you get ajettavat autot (drivable cars). In other cases the adjective changes form: ajettavan auton means “of a drivable car,” ajettavaa autoa means “a drivable car” (partitive), and ajettavien autojen means “of drivable cars” (genitive plural). This inflectional pattern is common for adjectives formed from participles.

Common domains for the term include automotive, machinery, robotics, and transportation safety. It appears in technical writing, product specifications, and compliance criteria to indicate that a vehicle or device meets the required operability or driveability standards. The concept is closely linked to whether a machine is operational, safe to operate, and capable of being driven under typical conditions.

Related terms include ajettava (singular, “drivable”), ajettavuus (drivability), and, in natural language use, synonyms like toimiva or käyttökelpoinen depending on context. In discourse, ajettavat is primarily a descriptive label applied to groups of vehicles, machines, or devices that satisfy driveability criteria, rather than a standalone noun.
