Mukautetuilla

Mukautettu is a Finnish adjective and past participle meaning “adapted” or “customized,” derived from the verb mukauttaa, to adapt. The form mukautetuilla is the adessive plural of this participle and is used to describe things that have been tailored or adjusted, often in phrases that indicate how a tool, setting, or method is used. It is a grammatical form rather than a standalone concept.

In practice, mukautetuilla appears in sentences that refer to customized conditions, settings, or devices. For example, ohjelmisto voidaan käyttää mukautetuilla asetuksilla (“the software can be used with customized settings”). Oppimateriaaleja voidaan tarjota mukautetuilla sisällöillä or mukautetuilla oppimateriaalivaihtoehdoilla describes customized educational materials. Mukautetuilla laitteilla tarkoitetaan devices that have been adapted to meet user needs.

The term is common in contexts such as education, healthcare, and technology, where services or products are adjusted to individual requirements. It can describe procedures, materials, devices, or environments that have been tailored to a specific user or group. Synonyms include räätälöity, personoitua, and sopeutettu, though mukautettu emphasizes adaptation to particular needs rather than a generic customization.

Morphology-wise, mukautettu declines like an adjective and partitive/adessive forms follow standard Finnish rules. The key point for mukautetuilla is its function within a noun phrase to indicate that the referenced items or settings have undergone adaptation or customization.
