Hakemuksille

Hakemuksille is a Finnish grammatical form used to indicate direction toward or for the noun hakemus, meaning an application or request. It is the allative case in the plural: hakemus becomes hakemukset in the nominative plural, and adding the suffix -lle yields hakemuksille, meaning to/for the applications.

In Finnish, the allative expresses destination, recipient or purpose, and is common in administrative and formal writing. Hakemuksille is therefore used when discussing matters that concern more than one application, such as deadlines, handling, or resources allocated to the applications. The form signals that the action or reference is directed at the set of applications rather than to a single item.

Typical usages include phrases about timeframes, procedures, and allocations connected to applications. For example: Hakemuksille asetettu määräaika on tiukka. Hakemuksille annettiin lisäaikaa. These constructions illustrate how hakemuksille functions as the indirect object or beneficiary of an action in official language.

Relation to related terms: Hakemuksille is the plural allative form of hakemus, and appears alongside other grammatical cases of hakemus in formal texts. It is commonly contrasted with forms such as hakemukselle (to/for a single application) or hakemusten (genitive plural).
