Opiskelijalle

Opiskelijalle is the allative form of the Finnish noun opiskelija (student). It means "to the student" or "for the student" and is used to indicate the recipient or beneficiary of an action or service. In Finnish, the allative suffix -lle marks direction toward or for someone, and opiskelijalle functions as the indirect object or beneficiary in sentences.

Usage: It appears in contexts where something is given to or intended for students, or where services are targeted at students. For example: Stipendi maksettiin opiskelijalle. (A stipend was paid to the student.) Opiskelijalle tarkoitetut palvelut ovat saatavilla. (Services intended for students are available.)

Related forms: The base noun is opiskelija (student). Other cases include opiskelijan (genitive) and opiskelijaksi (translative: to become a student). The allative is one of several Finnish cases used to express recipient or beneficiary.

In context: Finnish uses cases rather than prepositions to mark these roles, so opiskelijalle commonly appears with verbs such as antaa (to give), tarjota (to offer), or suunnitella (to plan) where the recipient is a student.
