Pelästyneeksi

Pelästyneeksi is the partitive plural form of the Finnish adjective pelästynyt, which translates to "startled" or "frightened" in English. In Finnish grammar, the partitive case is used for various grammatical functions, including indicating an indefinite quantity, the object of certain verbs, or as a complement to certain adjectives. Therefore, "pelästyneeksi" would be used in a sentence to describe a state of being startled or frightened in a manner indicated by the partitive case. For instance, it might be used to express that someone has become frightened of something in an ongoing or incomplete sense, or to describe a characteristic that is partially perceived. The exact meaning and usage depend heavily on the context of the sentence in which it appears. Finnish grammar is known for its complex case system, and understanding the function of the partitive is crucial for correct interpretation. "Pelästyneeksi" itself does not carry meaning in isolation but is a grammatical form contributing to the overall sense of a Finnish sentence.
