Onnistuttua
Onnistuttua is a Finnish non-finite verb form derived from the verb onnistua (to succeed). It expresses that the action of succeeding has been completed and is used to describe circumstances that accompany or precede the main clause. In contemporary Standard Finnish, the most common way to convey “having succeeded” in dependent clauses is the adverbial participle onnistuttuaan, or the fixed form onnistunut when used as an adjective. The form onnistuttua is less common and appears mainly in older texts, formal prose, or certain dialects as a contracted variant of onnistuttuaan.
