Keskisistä

Keskisistä is a Finnish grammatical term rather than a named concept. It is the elative plural form of the adjective keskinen, which means central or middle. In Finnish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in number and case, so keskinen inflects to form phrases such as keskisistä rakennuksista or keskisistä paikoista.

Morphology and usage

The base stem kesk- combines with the suffix -inen to form keskinen. In the elative plural, the adjective takes the ending -isistä to align with a noun that is itself in the elative plural (for example rakennukset or paikat in -ista). Thus keskisistä modifies a plural noun meaning “from the central ones” or “of the central ones,” as in “keskisistä rakennuksista,” meaning “from the central buildings.”

Examples

- Keskisistä rakennuksista on löytynyt muinaisia esineitä. (From the central buildings, ancient Objects have been found.)

- Keskisistä paikoista kerrottiin tutkimusraportissa. (From the central places, information was reported in the study.)

Notes

Because keskisistä is a grammatical form of keskinen, it does not denote a separate entity, place, or organization. Its primary relevance is in syntax and morphology, illustrating how Finnish adjectives decline to agree with the case and number of the nouns they describe. In practice, keskisistä appears in descriptive or narrative Finnish, especially in contexts discussing locations, origins, or distribution among multiple central items.
