Edellytyinä

Edellytyinä is a Finnish word that translates to "as prerequisites" or "on the condition that" in English. It is used to indicate that certain conditions must be met for something else to be possible or valid. This term is often encountered in legal, academic, and formal contexts where clear stipulations are necessary.

When used in a sentence, "edellytyinä" typically introduces a clause or a list of requirements. For example, one might say that a certain permit is granted "edellytyinä, että kaikki tarvittavat asiakirjat on toimitettu" which translates to "as a prerequisite, that all necessary documents have been submitted." This clearly establishes that the submission of documents is a condition for the permit being granted.

The concept of prerequisites is fundamental across many disciplines. In education, for instance, completing a specific course might be an "edellytys" (singular form of edellytyinä) for enrolling in an advanced one. In contract law, fulfillment of certain terms can be "edellytyinä" for the contract to be legally binding. The use of "edellytyinä" emphasizes the conditional nature of an agreement or process. Understanding this term is crucial for interpreting official documents and formal statements in Finnish.
