Luokiteltuna

Luokiteltuna is a Finnish grammatical form used to indicate that something has been classified into a category or security level. It is the past passive participle of luokitella (to classify) with a participial ending -na/-nä that yields a predicative state expression.

In practice, luokiteltuna is used in formal Finnish to describe items that are in a state of classification, for example in archives, information security policies, and government documents. It is closely related to luokiteltu (classified) and luokitus (classification). While luokiteltu is the common adjective meaning "classified," luokiteltuna appears in certain archival or metadata phrases to emphasize the status as a property of the item, often in contexts like catalogs or lists.

The term is commonly found alongside terms such as salassa pidettävä (secret) and luokitustaso (classification level), which specify the level of protection. In short, luokiteltuna conveys that an object has already been subjected to a classification process and is currently in a defined category or protection class, rather than describing the act of classifying itself.
