Analysoidessamme

Analysoidessamme is a Finnish non-finite verb form derived from analysoida ("to analyze"). It belongs to the category of adverbial participles (converbs) and expresses simultaneity between clauses. The form marks first-person plural, conveying the sense "as we analyze" or "while we analyze." It is typically used to connect a subordinate clause to the main clause without repeating the subject.

Usage of analysoidessamme is common in written Finnish, especially in academic, technical, or descriptive contexts. It allows writers to present methodological steps, background information, or data handling in a compact, flowing style. The form indicates that the action of analyzing occurs in the same time frame as the action of the main clause, and it can align with different tenses of the main clause (past, present, or sometimes conditional, depending on the sentence).

Morphology and example: the form is created from analysoida by adding the first-person plural adverbial suffix -dessamme, yielding analysoidessamme. For example: "Analysoidessamme dataa huomasimme, että tulokset poikkesivat odotuksista." Here, the subordinate clause describes the ongoing analysis, while the main clause states the observation. In practice, analysoidessamme is formal and most commonly found in written or scholarly prose; it can feel archaic or heavy in everyday speech, where simpler conjunctions or participles are more common.
