Englanninkielisessä

Englanninkielisessä is a Finnish adjective form meaning “in the English language” or “English-language.” It is the inessive singular form of the base adjective englanninkielinen, which describes content, texts, media, or editions that are produced in English. The word itself is formed from englanti (English) and the suffix -kielinen, which denotes language-related attributes.

In Finnish, such adjectives decline according to case and number, so the form englanninkielinen appears in the nominative, englanninkielisen in the genitive, and englanninkielisessä in the inessive, with corresponding plural forms like englanninkielisissä. The inessive form Englanninkielisessä is commonly used to specify where or in what language something exists—for example, “Englanninkielisessä versiossa teksti eroaa suomenkielisestä” (In the English-language version, the text differs from the Finnish version).

Usage notes: Englanninkielinen describes language of content rather than nationality. It can modify nouns referring to books, articles, websites, or other media, indicating that they are in English. It is interchangeable with related forms such as englanninkielistä tekstissä (in an English text) or englanninkielisessä julkaisemisessa (in English-language publication), depending on grammatical case.
