Mobiililaitteelta

Mobiililaitteelta is the elative form of the Finnish compound noun mobiililaite, meaning a mobile device. In Finnish usage, mobiililaitteelta is used to indicate that something originates from, or is produced on, a mobile device. This form is common in contexts where the source of data, content, or an action must be specified as a device type.

The word is formed by taking the stem mobiililaitte- and adding the elative suffix -elta, a standard Finnish pattern for signaling origin. It can appear with various verbs and nouns, for example in phrases describing where something was sent, viewed, or recorded, such as “Viesti lähetetty mobiililaitteelta” (The message was sent from a mobile device) or “Tiedot kerättiin mobiililaitteelta” (The data were collected from a mobile device).

Usage and context: mobiililaitteelta is widely used in technical writing, app documentation, online forms, and analytics to clarify the device source. It is typically preferred in formal or descriptive prose when distinguishing between content or actions performed on mobile devices versus other platforms, such as desktop or web. The term can appear in both everyday speech and professional settings, though in casual language speakers may use simpler expressions like “kotoa puhelimelta” or omit the device reference when it is understood from context.
