Peruutetun

Peruutetun is the genitive singular form of the Finnish past participle adjective peruutettu, which means canceled or called off. In Finnish, such participial adjectives are often used to describe nouns and can take the genitive ending to show association or possession. Peruutetun commonly appears in phrases that refer to something related to a cancellation.

In practice, peruutetun modifies a noun in a genitive construction. The typical pattern is peruutetun + [genitive noun], yielding a sense like “the canceled [something] of” or “the schedule/product related to the cancellation.” For example, peruutetun lennon liput means “the tickets of the canceled flight,” where lennon is the genitive form of lento (flight) and liput is the head noun.

Etymology and form: peruutettu derives from the verb peruuttaa, meaning to cancel. The suffix -tu- marks the past participle, and the genitive singular ending -n on peruutetun indicates its grammatical role as a modifier in a genitive phrase. This form is a typical feature of Finnish adjectives in genitive use and should not be treated as a standalone noun in general contexts.

Usage notes: Peruutetun is mainly found within noun phrases that discuss cancellation or its consequences, such as tickets, events, or orders tied to a cancellation. It is not commonly used as a standalone noun outside of such contexts.
