Kasvatettuihin

Kasvatettuihin is a grammatical form in Finnish. It is the illative plural form of the past participle kas̈vatettu, derived from the verb kasvattaa, which means to grow, raise, or cultivate. The illative case in Finnish expresses direction toward or into a destination, and in this form it is used with a plural noun to indicate movement toward or inclusion within the group described by kasvatettu.

Formation and morphology: The form combines the root of the participle with the illative plural ending -ihin, yielding kasvatettuihin. It functions as an inflected adjective-like form that can modify a plural noun in illative case (for example, kasvattettuihin tiloihin) or appear in a larger noun phrase describing categories of things that have been grown or raised.

Usage and context: Kasvatettuihin occurs mainly in written or formal contexts, such as linguistic descriptions of Finnish morphology, technical documents, or planning texts that discuss categories of cultivated or raised items. It is not common in everyday spoken Finnish, where simpler phrases or the base participle kasvetettu would be preferred in many situations.

Example: Siirrä ne kasvatettuihin tiloihin. This sentence illustrates the illative plural usage by directing action toward a group described as having been grown or raised.

Related terms: kasvaa, kasvattaa, kasvatus, kasvatettu. The form is part of Finnish case system and participle inflection, with illatiivi being one of several case endings used to express direction or destination.
