Osoitteensa

Osoitteensa is a Finnish noun form meaning “his/her/its address.” It is the third-person possessive form of the noun osoite (address) and is created with the standard Finnish possessive suffix, whose exact spelling (such as -nsä or -nsa) varies according to vowel harmony. The form functions as a determiner in a noun phrase, indicating that the address belongs to the subject being discussed without repeating the possessor.

In use, osoitteensa appears in both descriptive and narrative writing. It can stand in positions where English might use “his/her/its address,” for example in sentences like Hän katsoi osoitteensa kartalta (He looked at his address on the map) or Hän kirjoitti osoitteensa väärin (He wrote his address incorrectly). It is common in everyday Finnish, as well as in formal contexts where a possessor must be specified without naming the person explicitly.

Etymology and related forms: The base word osoite means “address” and is part of Finnish vocabulary for location details and contact information. The possessive form osoitteensa is part of a broader system of Finnish possessive constructions. Related forms include osoitteeni (my address), osoitteemme (our address), and the corresponding forms for other possessors. Finnish also uses genitive and other case endings to express similar relationships in different syntactic contexts.

Overall, osoitteensa is a standard, neutral word in Finnish for referring to someone’s address in a concise possessive construction.
