Lämpötiloissa

Lämpötiloissa is the inessive plural form of the Finnish noun lämpötila (temperature). It translates roughly as “in temperatures” or “at temperatures” and is used to describe conditions, measurements, or phenomena that occur under different temperature values. The form is created from the stem lämpötila and the inessive plural suffix -oissa, corresponding to “in the temperatures.” The singular inessive form is lämpötilassa, meaning “in a temperature” or more naturally “at a temperature.”

Usage examples are common in scientific, technical, and descriptive writing. For instance: “Kasvit reagoivat eri lämpötiloissa” (Plants react at different temperatures), and “Tutkimus tehtiin erilaisissa lämpötiloissa” (The study was conducted at various temperatures). The expression is also found in discussions of material properties, chemical reactions, and biological processes that depend on ambient temperature.

Notes on meaning and scope: lämpötiloissa is used when referring to multiple temperature values or ranges, rather than a single specific temperature. It often appears in contexts that compare how systems behave across temperature intervals, such as laboratory experiments or environmental observations. Related forms include lämpötila (singular), lämpötilat (plural nominative), and phrases like “lämpötilojen välillä” (between temperatures).
