Neliömetreihin

Neliömetreihin is a Finnish illative plural form of the unit neliömetri, which means square meters. The square meter, denoted by m², is a unit of area equal to the area of a square with sides of one meter.

In Finnish, illative forms express direction or destination and are used with verbs or predicates that require a sense of movement toward something. The plural illative form neliömetreihin therefore appears in contexts where the action or description is directed toward “to square meters” or “into square meters.” In everyday prose describing area, more common forms are the nominative or partitive (for example, neliömetriä or neliömetrejä in various cases), while neliömetreihin is reserved for more technical or specific phrasing.

Usage and context tend to be administrative, planning, budgeting, or data-oriented texts, such as contracts, project documents, or datasets, where area is allocated, distributed, or categorized into units of square meters. The form signals a relation to the unit as a target or container in the sentence structure.

Related forms include neliömetri (singular), neliömetriä (partitive singular), and neliömetreinä (as square meters). Other case forms are chosen according to standard Finnish noun declension rules to match grammatical function in the sentence.
