Julkistettuun

Julkistettuun is the illative singular form of the Finnish past passive participle julkistettu, which means “published” or “disclosed.” As an adjective, julkistettu describes something that has been made public, and julkistettuun is used when the described item is the target of movement or reference in the illative case (into/onto the published material or information).

Morphology and usage

Julkistettuun is formed from the stem of julkistaa (to publish, to disclose) with the past passive participle ending -ttu and the illative singular suffix -uun, yielding julkistettuun. In practice, it appears in formal or bureaucratic language where the next element is in illative form, for example referring to “the published material into which one embeds further analysis” or “the published report into which researchers point.” The form is most common when indicating a relation to published material rather than using the plain adjective julkistettu.

Contexts and nuance

The term is predominantly found in academic, governmental, legal, or media texts. It emphasizes that the referenced material has already been made public. In everyday Finnish, speakers may prefer simpler formulations such as julkaistu (published) or the specific noun in its appropriate case rather than frequently using julkistettuun.
