Peruttavissa

Peruttavissa is a Finnish adjective meaning that something can be canceled, withdrawn, or revoked. It describes a property or state attached to a plan, contract, order, permit, or offer, indicating that it is possible to cancel it under certain conditions. The term is commonly used in legal, administrative, and everyday contexts to reflect the controllable nature of a decision or arrangement.

Morphology and usage notes: Peruttavissa is formed from the verb peruuttaa (to cancel/withdraw) and the derivational suffix -ttava, yielding the participial stem peruttava, with the inessive suffix -ssa to express “in a state.” In practice, peruttavissa functions as a predicate adjective or as a modifier in phrases such as sopimus on peruttavissa (the contract is cancellable). It is often paired with phrases like "tietyin ehdoin" (under certain conditions) to specify when cancellation is possible. The word conveys that cancellation is possible in principle, not necessarily that it will occur.

Related terms: peruutus (cancellation), peruutusmahdollisuus (possibility of cancellation), peruttamaton or ei-peruttava (not cancellable/not reversible in other contexts). Peruttavaksi can also appear in other grammatical forms to describe the act of canceling in relation to a subject.

Usage examples: Tämä tarjous on peruttavissa. Sopimus on peruttavissa tietyin ehdoin. Hinta on peruttavissa, jos toimitus myöhästyy.
