Korvakoruissa

Korvakoruissa is a Finnish word that functions as the inessive plural form of korvakoru, meaning “earring.” It translates roughly to “in the earrings” and is used to indicate location or position inside multiple earrings or within the pair of earrings. In Finnish, the inessive case expresses location, and the plural form applies to plural nouns such as korvakorut.

Formation and grammar: The base noun korvakoru becomes korvakorut in the nominative plural. To form the inessive plural, the suffix -issa/-issä is attached to the plural stem, yielding korvakoruissa. This corresponds to “in the earrings.” The corresponding singular inessive is korvakorussa (in the earring).

Usage: Korvakoruissa is commonly used when describing contents or features located inside earrings, such as in product descriptions or descriptive writing. Examples include: “Korvakoruissa on pieni timantti” (There is a small diamond in the earrings) and “Korvakoruissa on helmikoriste” (The earrings contain a pearl ornament). The form helps specify placement within a set or pair of items rather than a single item.

Other related cases include korvakorujen (genitive plural) and korvakoruihin (illative plural), which are used to express different grammatical relationships with korvakoru.
