Linkissä

Linkissä isä Finnish grammatical form of the noun linkki, meaning a hyperlink or link. It is the inessive singular, used to indicate location inside or within the link or the content that the link leads to. In everyday Finnish, linkki refers to a clickable URL in digital documents or web pages, and its inflected forms follow standard Finnish noun declension.

Grammatically, linkki is a regular inflecting noun. Singular forms include linkin (genitive), linkkiä (partitive), and linkissä (inessive). The plural is linkit (nominative) with corresponding forms like linkkien (genitive) and linkeissä (inessive). The specific choice of case depends on what is being described: a thing located in the link, from the link, or within the linked resource.

Usage notes: linkissä is naturally used when the sentence emphasizes the location or content associated with the link. For example: “Lisätietoja löytyy tässä linkissä.” or “Linkissä mainitaan käyttöehdot.” In many contexts, speakers also refer to the linked resource with phrases such as “linkin kautta” (through the link) or “linkin takana oleva sivu” (the page behind the link), depending on what is meant.

Relation to related concepts: the term refers to digital hyperlinks, URLs, and hypertext. While common in Finnish, the exact choice of case form (linkistä, linkissä, linkin, etc.) depends on what is being expressed, and clearer alternatives may be used when referring to the content of the linked page rather than the link itself.
