Kokoiksi

Kokoiksi is a Finnish form that functions primarily as the translative plural of the noun koko, which means size or extent, or the whole of something. In Finnish grammar, the translative case is used to express a change of state or transformation, equivalent to the English “into” or “becoming.” As kokoiksi, the form indicates a transition into multiple sizes or into size classifications, depending on the context.

Etymology and morphology

Kokoiksi is formed by taking the noun koko and adding the translative plural ending -iksi. This reflects a change of state in reference to more than one size category or dimension. The exact interpretation of kokoiksi is therefore context-dependent, and it typically appears in discussions of measurement, categorization, or packaging where items are described as becoming or being classified into various sizes.

Usage

In practice, kokoiksi occurs in Finnish texts dealing with manufacturing, retail, fashion, or technical descriptions that require signaling a shift to size-based classifications. The form is not a separate lexical item with a fixed meaning beyond its grammatical function; its sense derives from koko and the translative usage.

Relation to related terms

Koko as a base word appears in several Finnish words and compounds related to size, completeness, or entirety. The translative suffix -iksi is part of a broader system of Finnish case endings used to express transformation or reclassification.
