Annettaviksi

Annettaviksi is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb antaa, meaning to give. It is the translative plural form of the passive present participle annettava, used to indicate that something is intended to be given or handed over. As a participial construction, annettaviksi functions adjectivally, modifying a noun phrase and describing what is to be given or handed over, and sometimes for whom or for what purpose, depending on context.

In practical use, annettaviksi is common in bureaucratic, legal, and procedural language. It appears in phrases such as annettaviksi tarkoitetut asiakirjat (documents intended to be given) or annettaviksi tarkoitetut ohjeet (instructions intended to be given). The ending -ksi marks the translative case, with the plural -iksi signaling reference to multiple items or a general instruction context.

Related forms include annettava (the present passive participle, “to be given”) and annettavaksi (singular translative form “to be given” in a specific instance). The use of annettaviksi emphasizes the future-directed or intended administrative action of giving or distributing.

Notes: Finnish participles with translative endings can be nuanced; the exact case is determined by the surrounding syntax. In many contexts, especially non-technical writing, alternatives such as annettavat or muuta ilmaisua may be used to convey a similar idea without the translative form.
