Lukukappaleeseen

Lukukappaleeseen is the illative singular form of the Finnish noun lukukappale, which refers to a reading passage or text excerpt. The word lukukappale itself is a compound of lukea (to read) and kappale (piece, section), and is commonly used in educational contexts to denote a short text used for reading tasks, comprehension questions, or linguistic exercises.

In practice, lukukappaleeseen is used to indicate a specific passage that readers are directed to read or discuss. It appears in phrases such as lukukappaleeseen liittyvät tehtävät (the tasks related to the reading passage) or keskuste­lu keskittyi lukukappaleeseen (the discussion focused on the reading passage). The form is part of Finnish case system, where illative endings denote movement into or toward something, here pointing to a particular section within a text.

Related forms include lukukappale (nominative singular), lukukappaleen (genitive), lukukappaleessa (inessive), and lukukappaleet (plural). The concept is primarily used in schoolwork, language learning materials, and publishing where precise references to a text segment are needed.

Usage notes: lukukappaleeseen functions as a reference to a specific passage within a larger work, such as a textbook or article. It is less common outside formal or instructional writing, but remains a standard term in Finnish educational discourse.
