Pyydetystä

Pyydetystä is a Finnish word formed from the verb pyytää, meaning to request or to ask. It is the elative singular form of the past passive participle pyydetty, used as an adjective meaning “requested” or “that was requested.” In Finnish, adjectives and participles agree with the noun they modify in case and number, so pyydetystä is used with nouns in the elative singular, often referring to information, documents, or items that were requested.

Grammatical role and forms: As a participle adjective, pyydetty carries multiple inflected forms depending on the case and number of the noun it describes. The elative singular form pyydetystä typically appears in phrases where the whole noun phrase is in the elative case, for example pyydetystä tiedosta (from the information that was requested) or pyydetystä kirjasta (from the requested book). The base form and other case forms vary to reflect the noun they modify.

Usage: Pyydetystä is common in formal or administrative language, such as government or business reports, research communications, and legal or bureaucratic texts, where it is important to distinguish items or information that have been specifically requested.

Examples:

- pyydetystä tiedosta → from the information that was requested

- pyydetystä kirjasta → from the requested book

- pyydetystä materiaalista → from the requested material

Etymology: The word derives from the verb pyytää plus the past passive participle suffix -tty, with the elative case ending -stä applied to the participle to form pyydetystä. Related forms include pyydetty (the participle in base form) and other case-inflected versions of the same adjective.
