Puiston

Puiston is the genitive form of the Finnish noun puisto, which means park. In Finnish, puiston translates to "of the park" or "the park's," and it is used to express possession or association within a noun phrase.

Usage examples include puiston portit (the park's gates) and puiston reunat (the park's edges). In toponyms and street names, the root puisto often appears in compound forms where the stem denotes a location related to a park; for example, Puistokatu or Puistola are common types of place names. Puiston as a standalone toponym is uncommon; rather, it occurs as a grammatical form within multi-word names or descriptive phrases.

Grammatical role: Puiston is inflected for case in Finnish; as genitive, it marks possession or attribution and can be used with definite and indefinite nouns depending on the broader phrase.

Notable considerations: While puisto is a common everyday word, puiston as a separate name does not correspond to a widely recognized international location. The term is primarily a grammatical form, not a separate entity.
