Lykistämällään

Lykistämällään is a Finnish word that functions as a past passive participle, singular, in the adessive case, derived from the verb "lykistää." The verb "lykistää" itself means to push or shove, often with a sense of force or to move something along. Therefore, "lykistämällään" literally translates to "by its having been pushed" or "by one's having pushed it."

This grammatical form indicates an action that has been completed and is being performed or experienced by the subject of the sentence. The adessive case ("-llä") typically denotes location, means, or accompaniment. In this context, it suggests that the action of being pushed is the means by which something is occurring or the state in which something exists.

For example, one might say "Ovi oli auki lykistämällään" which could be translated as "The door was open, having been pushed" or "The door was open by its having been pushed." The exact nuance depends heavily on the surrounding sentence structure and context. It is a relatively uncommon grammatical construction in everyday speech, often found in more formal or literary contexts. The word emphasizes the passive reception of a pushing action, highlighting the agent or circumstance that caused it.
