Löytöjen

Löytöjen is the genitive plural form of the Finnish noun löytö, meaning a discovery or a find. In Finnish, the genitive plural is used to indicate possession or relation to several items, or to refer to a set of discoveries as a whole. Common usages include löytöjen arvo (the value of the discoveries) and löytöjen historia (the history of the discoveries).

Origin and form: löytö is derived from the verb löytää, meaning to find. The base forms are löytö (singular nominative), löytöjen (genitive plural), while the plural nominative is löydöt. The genitive plural ending -en is typical for many Finnish -ö nouns in this form. The word is common in written Finnish, especially in academic, museum, or journalistic contexts.

Usage notes: Löytöjen is used when discussing a group of discoveries. It is not a proper noun. It can combine with other nouns to form phrases such as arvo, historia, lista, or kokoelma, for example löytöjen arvo, löytöjen historia, löytöjen lista, or löytöjen kokoelma.

Examples: Löytöjen arvo on kiistanalainen. Museo esittelee löytöjen historiaa. Tutkijat laativat löytöjen listan ennen julkista näyttelyä.
