Myisivät

Myisivät is a Finnish verb form, not a standalone lexical item. It is the third-person plural conditional mood form of the verb myydä, meaning to sell. It is used to describe an action that would take place by a group under a hypothetical condition, and it translates roughly as they would sell.

Finnish verbs are conjugated for mood, tense, person, and number. The conditional mood for the third person plural is formed with the suffix -isivat attached to the verb stem; in the standard form of myydä this yields myisivät. The form often involves small phonetic adjustments that are typical of Finnish verb conjugation.

Usage-wise, myisivät appears in conditional clauses or hypothetical statements involving multiple subjects. It indicates what would happen if a certain condition were met. Example: Jos he myisivät talonsa, saisimme rahaa. This sentence expresses a hypothetical sale by a group and the consequence of receiving money.

Because Finnish verbs agree with their subject in person and number, myisivät corresponds to a plural subject. It is not used with singular subjects. Related forms include other person-number variants of the same verb in the conditional mood, such as minä myisin (I would sell) and me myisimme (we would sell).
