Muunnettujen

Muunnettujen is a Finnish word that functions as the genitive plural form of the participial adjective muunnettu, meaning transformed, modified, or altered. It is used to describe a group of things that have undergone transformation, and it typically appears in noun phrases rather than as a standalone word.

In Finnish, muunnettu originates from the verb muuntaa (to transform or convert). The form muunnettujen is the genitive plural of muunnettu, so it is used to indicate possession or relation to “the transformed ones” within a larger noun phrase. For example, in scientific or technical writing the phrase muunnettujen solujen ominaisuudet means “the properties of the transformed cells,” and muunnettujen organismien turvallisuusarviointi means “the safety assessment of the transformed organisms.”

Usage and contexts

Muunnettujen is most common in professional, academic, or fictional contexts where objects or beings have been altered, engineered, or otherwise transformed. It often appears together with a noun in the genitive or other cases, forming phrases that specify what has been transformed and what aspect is being discussed (for example, muunnettujen solujen metabolia, muunnettujen bakteerien vaikutukset). While primarily technical, the form can appear in media or literature when describing modified entities.
