Järjestäjiin

Järjestäjiin is the Finnish dative plural form of the noun järjestäjä, meaning organizer or host. The word is formed by adding the dative case ending –iin to the plural stem järjestäj-. In everyday Finnish, it is most often encountered in written or spoken communication that addresses or refers to a group of organizers: for example, a municipal notice might read “Sähköpostistamme lähetämme tiedot järjestäjiin” (We will send the information to the organizers). The use of the dative case signals that the organizers are the indirect objects or recipients of an action.

The construction is typical of Finnish grammar, where the dative case is used for indirect objects, recipients, and sometimes for spatial or temporal relationships. The plural dative endings –iin (for consonant stems) and –ille (for vowel stems) are distinguished, but in this case the stem ends in a consonant, so –iin is appropriate. Related forms include nominative järjestäjät (organizers) and accusative järjestäjiä. In predicative constructions, the nominative is used, as in “Järjestäjät ovat paikalla” (The organizers are present).

Examples of the word in context are common in press releases, event invitations, and administrative documents: “Järjestäjiin on tarkoitettu informatiivisia sessioneita” (Informational sessions are intended for the organizers) and “Palkintotavara on lähetetty järjestäjiin” (The award materials have been sent to the organizers). In informal speech, speakers may contract the ending, producing “järjestäjiin” within larger phrases.

Because Finnish is a highly inflected language, recognizing the dative plural form helps in understanding official messages and in translating documents that involve multiple organizers. It is a small but essential part of Finnish linguistic convention, ensuring clarity about who is intended to receive information, instructions, or other resources.
