Antoloogilisi

Antoloogilisi is a Finnish adjective meaning “anthological” or “relating to an anthology.” It is used to describe content that is drawn from or characteristic of a literary anthology, a collection of works by multiple authors. The term is formed from the noun antologia (anthology) with the common Finnish suffix -inen, and antoloogilisi is one of the inflected forms used before a plural noun in certain grammatical cases.

Etymology: The Finnish word derives from antologia, borrowed from Greek, where the term originally referred to a collection of selected writings. In Finnish, antologinen denotes anything pertaining to an anthology, and antoloogilisi is one of its inflected forms to agree with the noun it modifies.

Usage: Antoloogilisi is primarily found in literary criticism, publishing, and academic writing. It describes poems, stories, essays, or other texts that are part of an anthology or that resemble a multi-author collection. Using the term often implies that the pieces have been curated or selected to fit a common theme or scope, rather than being a single author’s standalone work.

Relation to related terms: The base form antologinen means “anthological,” while antologia is the noun for “anthology.” Antoloogilisi is a specific inflected form used in contexts where grammatical agreement with a plural noun is required.
