Pituuksina

Pituuksina is a Finnish noun phrase meaning “as lengths.” It is formed from the noun pituus (length) and is used when several lengths are specified or listed. In Finnish grammar it functions as a plural form related to designation or conversion into a state described by lengths, and it commonly appears in technical or catalog-style language rather than in everyday speech.

Pituuksina is most often encountered in specifications, inventories, or design documents where multiple measurements are given. It helps frame the listed numbers as dimensions or extents rather than as singular values. The phrase emphasizes the role of the measurements as lengths rather than as other kinds of quantities.

Examples of usage include: “Laatikon sisämitat ovat pituuksina 30 cm, 45 cm ja 60 cm.” or “Hankintalistalla ovat pituuksina 2 m, 3 m ja 4 m.” In ordinary prose, speakers more commonly use pituudet or mitat, depending on the context, and pituuksina may sound formal or technical.

See also: pituus, pituudet, mitat. Note that pituuksina is a specialized grammatical form and is not typically used outside contexts that involve listing or categorizing lengths.
