Postauksien

Postauksien is the genitive plural form of the Finnish noun postaus, a relatively recent term used to refer to content published on online platforms such as blogs, social media, or discussion forums. A postaus typically denotes a single entry or message created and shared by a user, and postauksia or postauksien refer to multiple such entries in different grammatical roles.

Etymology and usage context

Postaus combines the English loanword post with a Finnish derivational suffix, and its meaning has broadened with the rise of digital media. In contemporary Finnish, postauksia and postauksien are common in discussions about online content, social media analytics, and digital culture. The genitive plural postauksien is used to express possession or relation to several posts, for example: postauksien aiheet (the topics of the posts), postauksien määrä (the number of posts), postauksien tekijät (the authors of the posts).

Grammatical notes

Postaus follows standard Finnish inflection: postauksien denotes genitive plural. It is used in noun phrases that describe attributes of or relate to multiple posts, especially in formal or analytical writing. In everyday language, speakers may prefer synonyms such as julkaisu or kirjoitus, but postaus remains the dominant term for online entries in social contexts.
