Muokatun

Muokatun is the genitive singular form of the Finnish past passive participle muokattu, meaning edited or modified. It is used as an adjective in noun phrases to indicate that the noun it modifies has undergone editing.

In Finnish grammar, past participles function like adjectives and agree with the noun they modify in case. When both components of a noun phrase are in the genitive, muokatun appears as the modifier in genitive form. A typical construction is muokatun followed by a genitive noun, for example muokatun kuvan, meaning “of the edited image” or “the edited image’s.”

Usage of muokatun is common in contexts related to editing, publishing, photography, and digital media, where there is a need to describe material that has already been edited. The form can pair with various head nouns to express possession or association with the editing process, such as muokatun artikkelin, muokatun kuvan, or muokatun tekstin, depending on the intended noun.

Example sentences:

- Muokatun kuvan laatu on parantunut. (The quality of the edited image has improved.)

- Muokatun artikkelin julkaisussa kiinnitettiin huomiota kuvan laatuun. (In the publication of the edited article, attention was paid to the image quality.)

Related forms include muokattu (edited) as the base participle and muokkaus (editing) as the morphological noun. Muokatun serves as a grammatical variant used specifically in genitive constructions.
