Pelaajilta

Pelaajilta is the plural ablative form of the Finnish noun pelaaja, meaning "from the players." It is used to indicate source, origin, or attribution, particularly in sentences that refer to information, statements, or actions coming from players. In Finnish grammar, -ilta/-iltä marks the ablative plural, so pelaajilta literally translates to "from the players."

The form is most commonly found in journalistic and sports writing, where quotations or attributions rely on the players as a source. It can also appear in broader reporting to indicate that information originates with players rather than with coaches, officials, or other sources.

Examples:

- Pelaajilta saatuja vastauksia käsitellään jutussa. (Answers obtained from the players are being discussed in the article.)

- Pelaajilta tulevat kommentit olivat myönteisiä. (The comments coming from the players were positive.)

- Pelaajilta peräisin olevat tiedot osoittavat riskitekijät. (The information originating from the players indicates risk factors.)

Related terms and notes:

- Pelaajat is the plural nominative form (the players); pelaajien is genitive (of the players).

- The ablative singular form is -lta; for example, pelaajalta means "from the player."

- The usage of pelaajilta does not constitute a proper noun or title; it is a grammatical form used in Finnish sentences.
