Analysoidessaan

analysoidessaan is a Finnish verb form derived from the infinitive analysoida ("to analyze"). It is an adverbial participle used to express a simultaneous or accompanying action, commonly translated into English as "while analyzing," "when analyzing," or "in analyzing." The form signals that the subject of the clause performs the analyzing at the same time as another event occurs.

Morphologically, analysoidessaan is built from the verb stem and an adverbial participle suffix, producing a temporal or circumstantial clause. In use it typically refers to a third-person subject but may be interpreted in context for singular or plural reference. The construction links actions without requiring a separate finite verb for the subordinate clause.

Typical use is found in written and formal Finnish, especially in scientific, technical, and journalistic contexts where concise temporal linkage is needed. Example sentences:

- Analysoidessaan aineistoa tutkija havaitsi uusia kuvioita. (While analyzing the material, the researcher observed new patterns.)

- Yritys muuttaa strategiaansa analysoidessaan markkinatrendejä. (The company changes its strategy when analyzing market trends.)

Related forms include other adverbial participles formed with -essa/-essä (e.g., lukiessaan, kirjoittaessaan) and finite constructions that convey similar temporal relations (e.g., kun hän analysoi). The choice between these depends on stylistic preference and syntactic clarity.
