Osaluettelosta

Osaluettelosta is the elative form of the Finnish noun osaluettelo, a list that enumerates the parts or components of a larger object such as a machine, vehicle, or appliance. In technical documentation, the osaluettelo identifies the individual components that make up the whole, typically including part numbers, names, quantities, and sometimes references to assembly drawings or compatibility notes. The phrase osaluettelosta translates roughly to “from the parts list” or “of the parts list.”

Etymology and grammar: osa means “part,” luettelo means “list,” combined as osaluettelo. The suffix -sta/-stä marks the elative case, indicating origin or source; thus osaluettelosta means “from the parts list.”

Usage and context: The term appears in maintenance manuals, spare-parts catalogs, service notes, and procurement records. It signals that information is sourced from the parts list. Typical contents of an osaluettelo are items such as the part number (osanumero), a short description, quantity, and any model or compatibility notes. Users rely on it to identify replacements and verify correct parts for a given product or edition.

Relation to related terms: Osaluettelo is distinct from sisällysluettelo (table of contents) and from other part-related lists; it specifically concerns parts and components. In practice, an osaluettelo may be cross-referenced with drawings or manuals to locate the physical part.
