Paljastuneissa

Paljastuneissa is the inessive plural form of the Finnish past participle paljastunut, meaning “revealed” or “uncovered.” In Finnish grammar, paljastunut functions as an adjective participle, and by adding the suffix -issa/-issä it becomes a form that modifies a plural noun in the inessive case. The form paljastuneissa is therefore used when referring to multiple revealed items or cases that are described as being in a state of revelation.

The basic idea behind paljastuneissa is that the information, objects, or situations have already been disclosed or made known. The inessive plural is chosen to align with nouns in the inessive case, which often occurs in descriptive or explanatory sentences. For singular reference, the corresponding form would be paljastuneessa.

Usage and context:

Paljastuneissa is most common in formal, analytical, or written Finnish, such as journalism, academic writing, and legal or investigative contexts. It signals that the referenced elements have undergone revelation and are being discussed with respect to that state.

Examples:

- Paljastuneissa tapauksissa viranomaiset ovat antaneet lisätietoja. (In the revealed cases, authorities have provided additional information.)

- Tutkijat ovat kiristäneet analyysiä paljastuneissa tiedoissa. (Researchers have intensified analysis in the revealed information.)

- Paljastuneissa tilanteissa on tärkeää arvioida riskit ja vastuut. (In revealed situations, it is important to assess risks and responsibilities.)

Notes:

Paljastuneissa requires a plural noun in the inessive case and is not used in isolation to denote “the revealed” as a standalone concept. It is one of several participial forms Finnish uses to describe the state of information or objects after revelation.
