Luennoina

Luennoina is a Finnish word that translates to "as lectures" or "in lectures." It is the adessive plural form of the noun "luento," which means lecture. This grammatical form indicates that something is happening or being done in the context of lectures, or that something is being presented or received as part of a series of lectures.

For example, one might say "Kurssi järjestetään luennoina" which means "The course is organized as lectures." This implies that the primary mode of instruction for the course is through lectures. Another usage could be "Tieto välittyi luennoina" meaning "The information was conveyed through lectures." This highlights lectures as the channel for information dissemination.

The adessive case in Finnish is often used to denote location, accompaniment, or means. In the case of "luennoina," it signifies the context or the means through which something is experienced or understood. It is a common construction in academic and educational settings in Finland when discussing the format or delivery of educational content. The word itself does not refer to a specific institution or event, but rather a general way of presenting information or structuring a course.
