Luotollisille

Luotollisille is a Finnish word form used to express the plural allative. It is formed by the stem luotollis- plus the suffix -ille, which in Finnish marks the allative case in plural and indicates direction toward or for a group of referents.

In Finnish grammar, the allative case answers questions such as “to whom?” or “to what?” when used with verbs or constructions that convey a destination or recipient. The plural -ille suffix signals that the destination or recipient is more than one person or entity. Therefore luotollisille can be understood as “to/for the trustworthy ones” or, more broadly, “to/for the group described by the root luotollis-,” depending on the surrounding context.

The exact meaning of luotollisille depends on the root from which it is derived. If luotollinen is interpreted as “trustworthy” or “reliable,” luotollisille would convey a sense of addressing or assigning something to a group described by that root. It is worth noting that luotollinen is not a common everyday word in Finnish; more typical adjectives with similar meaning include luotettava, while luotollinen appears mainly as a productive but relatively rare derivative form in inflected phrases.

As a grammatical form, luotollisille functions primarily within noun phrases or clauses describing a group, rather than as a standalone lexical item. Its use illustrates Finnish case and number agreement and the way adjectives or derived stems can participate in inflected phrases to indicate recipients or beneficiaries.
