Pudotin

Pudotin is the first-person singular past tense form of the Finnish verb pudottaa, meaning I dropped or I let fall. It is used to describe a completed action in which the subject caused an object to fall. The infinitive pudottaa means to drop or to cause to fall. In Finnish, verbs change form to reflect person and tense, and pudotin is the standard past tense ending for the first person singular.

Morphology and usage:

Pudotin follows the regular Finnish pattern for past tense in the first person singular, with the stem pudot- plus the ending -in. Other persons in the past tense are pudotit (you dropped), pudotti (he/she dropped), pudotimme (we dropped), pudotitte (you all dropped), and pudottivat (they dropped). The word typically appears in sentences where the subject is performing the act of dropping something, for example: Minä pudotin lasin pöydältä. (I dropped the glass from the table.) The object that is dropped is usually expressed directly or shown in the context.

Notes:

Pudotin is not a standalone noun or a proper term in Finnish; it is a verb form. In written and spoken Finnish, it is common to omit the subject pronoun, so sentences like Pudotin lasin pöydältä are understood as "I dropped the glass from the table." The related noun form or broader discussion would center on the verb pudottaa and its conjugation across tenses and persons.
