Listattujen

Listattujen is a Finnish grammatical form used as the genitive plural of the past passive participle listattu, from the verb listata meaning to list or enumerate. In Finnish, adjectives and participles agree with the noun they modify in number and case, so when the noun is in genitive plural, the participle takes the corresponding genitive plural form, listattujen. The term functions as an adjective in a noun phrase such as “listattujen henkilöiden nimet” (the names of the listed persons) or “listattujen tuotteiden hinnat” (the prices of the listed products).

Formation and use

Listattu forms are derived from the verb listata. The past passive participle becomes an adjective and can be inflected to match the controlled noun. The genitive plural form listattujen is used whenever the modified noun is in genitive plural, and the whole phrase expresses a relationship of inclusion or reference to items that have been listed.

Common contexts

Listattujen appears predominantly in formal, administrative, or written Finnish. It often occurs in official documents, reports, or minutes where distinguishing between listed versus unlisted items or individuals is relevant. It is less common in everyday spoken Finnish, where simpler constructions are preferred.

Examples

- Listattujen henkilöiden nimet löytyvät tästä listasta. (The names of the listed persons are found on this list.)

- Pöytäkirja sisältää listattujen tuotteiden hinnat. (The minutes include the prices of the listed products.)

Notes

As with all Finnish participles used as adjectives, listattujen must agree with the noun it modifies in number and case. Its usage emphasizes that the referenced items have been previously enumerated or identified.
