Käännetyillä

Käännetyillä is a Finnish term that translates to "with the translated ones" or "by the translated ones" in English. It refers to a grammatical construction in the Finnish language where the genitive plural form of a noun is used to indicate a relationship or action performed by multiple translated entities. This typically occurs when discussing concepts, objects, or individuals that have been translated from another language or context into Finnish.

The construction implies that the subject of the sentence is interacting with or being acted upon by a group of translated items. For example, one might say "arvostelin käännellyillä materiaaleilla" which means "I reviewed with the translated materials." Here, "käännellyillä" is the adessive plural of "käännelty," the past passive participle of the verb "kääntää" (to translate). The adessive case (-llä, -lla) signifies "with" or "on."

Understanding "käännetyillä" is important for comprehending nuanced discussions about translation, adaptation, and the reception of foreign-language content in Finnish. It highlights the grammatical flexibility of Finnish in expressing complex relationships involving translated elements. The specific context will determine the precise meaning of the genitive plural, but it consistently points to a plural group of translated entities.
