Myynnillään

Myynnillään is a Finnish grammatical form built from the noun myynti (sale or selling) that conveys “with his/her/its selling” or “through his/her/its sales.” The form combines the adessive case marker with a third-person possessive suffix, so it is used to attribute actions, outcomes, or capabilities to the subject’s sales performance rather than to selling in general.

In use, myynnillään typically appears in business, economic, or journalistic contexts when a person or organization’s success is being explained by their sales results. It describes the influence of sales activity on a given situation and can be paraphrased more openly as “on the basis of sales,” “thanks to sales,” or “through sales” (for example, “Yritys kasvoi myynnillään,” meaning the company grew due to its sales).

Linguistically, it is one of several inflected forms that Finnish allows for signaling nuance about the agent or means of an action. It is not a standalone noun but a specific inflected form of myynti used to smooth the attribution within a sentence. The expression is most common in formal or semi-formal discourse and may be found alongside related phrases such as myynnin perusteella or myynnin ansiosta.

Related terms include myynti (sales), myynnillinen (sales-oriented), and phrases describing sales-driven outcomes (myynnin kasvu, myynnin tulos).
