Oviaukoihin

Oviaukoihin is a Finnish inflected form derived from the noun oviaukko, which means a door opening or doorway. The form oviaukoihin is the illative plural, used to indicate movement toward or into multiple door openings. As a grammatical construction, it appears in sentences rather than as an independent entry in ordinary speech.

Etymology and form: oviaukko combines ovi (door) and aukko (opening). In Finnish, the illative plural suffix -iin attaches to the plural stem oviaukot to yield oviaukoihin, signaling direction into a space that consists of several door openings or into such openings collectively. The construction is typical of descriptive or architectural language.

Usage: Oviaukoihin is common in texts that describe buildings, architectural features, or historical sites where multiple door openings are part of the spatial layout. It is not a frequently used term in everyday conversation, but it is correct in formal, descriptive, or scholarly Finnish when referring to movement toward or into multiple door openings.

Example: Käytävät johtivat oviaukkoihin. Translation: The corridors led to the door openings.
