Palvelimeen

Palvelimeen is the Finnish illative form of the noun palvelin, meaning server. It is used to express movement toward or into the server, and it appears frequently in computing and IT contexts when describing actions directed at a server, such as sending data or establishing a connection.

In Finnish, many nouns take specific suffixes to indicate direction or location. The form palvelimeen attaches to the stem to convey “to the server” or “into the server.” This makes it a common choice in sentences that describe contacting, querying, or transferring information to a server.

Usage examples include:

- Lähetä tiedosto palvelimeen. (Send the file to the server.)

- Ota yhteys palvelimeen. (Establish a connection to the server.)

- Ohjelma siirtyi palvelimeen, mikä mahdollisti nopeamman reagoinnin. (The program moved to the server, enabling a faster response.)

In practice, palvelimeen is widely used in IT, web development, and network administration. Depending on the verb and nuance, alternative forms such as palvelimelle may appear, but palvelimeen is a standard choice for indicating direction toward the server in many technical contexts.
