Järjestelmälleen

Järjestelmälleen is a Finnish word that translates to "for its system" or "to its system." It is a grammatical form used to indicate the dative case of the word "järjestelmä," which means "system." The dative case in Finnish is used to express the recipient of an action or the indirect object of a verb.

For example, in the sentence "Annat sen järjestelmälleen" (You give it to its system), "järjestelmälleen" is the dative form of "järjestelmä." It signifies that "its system" is the recipient of the action of giving.

The ending "-lle" is the typical dative case ending in Finnish. When applied to "järjestelmä," it becomes "järjestelmälle." However, in this specific instance, the possessive suffix "-än" (third-person singular possessive) is added, changing "järjestelmälle" to "järjestelmälleen." This indicates that the system belongs to someone or something (hence "its"), and the action is directed towards that specific system.

Understanding the dative case and possessive suffixes is crucial for comprehending Finnish grammar. "Järjestelmälleen" is a common example of how these grammatical elements combine to form precise meanings within a sentence, highlighting a relationship of direction or possession.
