Eläintieteellisille

Eläintieteellisille is a Finnish adjective meaning "zoological" or "pertaining to zoology." It is the allative plural form of the adjective eläintieteellinen, indicating movement towards or purpose for zoological entities or concepts. For example, eläintieteellisille tutkimuksille would translate to "for zoological research."

In scientific contexts, eläintieteellisille is used to specify that something is related to the scientific study of animals. This can encompass a wide range of fields within zoology, such as the classification, distribution, behavior, and physiology of animals. When discussing collections, resources, or institutions, the term indicates their connection to the field of zoology.

The word is derived from "eläin," meaning "animal," and "tiede," meaning "science." Therefore, "eläintieteellinen" directly translates to "animal science" or "zoological." The allative plural ending "-lle" signifies the dative case, often used to denote the recipient or purpose of an action or item. Thus, "eläintieteellisille" implies "to/for zoological things." This grammatical form is crucial for constructing grammatically correct Finnish sentences when referring to multiple zoological subjects or purposes.
