Kaasupolttimissa

Kaasupolttimissa is a Finnish grammatical form that translates roughly to “in gas burners” or “on gas burners.” It is the inessive plural form of the compound kaasupoltin, itself made from kaasu (gas) and poltin (burner). The suffix -issa marks location, and the plural -inna or -issa indicates multiple burners. As a case form, kaasupolttimissa functions within a sentence rather than as a standalone lexical item; its precise meaning depends on the surrounding verbs and nouns.

In Finnish texts, kaasupolttimissa typically appears in technical writing, manuals, safety notes, or recipes where the action or state pertains to multiple gas burners. It is common in phrasing that describes use, inspection, or conditions related to burners located in a stove, appliance, or system.

Examples of usage include phrases describing procedures or safety requirements, such as instructions that refer to devices or steps undertaken on kaasupolttimissa. Because it is a morphological form, it can be combined with other words to form compound expressions, for instance referring to “kaasupolttimissa käytettävät osat” (parts used on gas burners) or “kaasupolttimissa huomioitavat risks” (risks to note on gas burners).
