Rahallisia

Rahallisia is the plural partitive form of the Finnish adjective rahallinen, meaning monetary or financial. It is used to describe things connected to money or financial aspects, such as benefits, resources, or subsidies.

Etymology and morphology: The word derives from the noun raha (money) with the suffix -llinen, which forms adjectives. In Finnish, adjectives agree with the noun in number and case, and rahallisia is specifically the partitive plural form. The corresponding nominative plural form is rahalliset.

Grammar notes: Rahallisia is used with nouns in the partitive case, often to express an indefinite amount or a subset of a broader category. Examples include rahallisia etuja (monetary benefits) and rahallisia tukia (financial subsidies). When referring to a definite, countable set, the nominative plural rahalliset would be used (e.g., rahalliset etuudet).

Usage and contexts: The term is common in public policy, economics, and legal language to discuss monetary aspects of programs, funding, or resources. It can describe policy measures, financial incentives, or other payments tied to money rather than non-monetary considerations.

Related terms: Rahallinen as an adjective contrasts with taloudellinen (economic) and other nuance-specific terms. The general concept of monetary aspects in Finnish is often expressed with rahallinen or rahaa koskeva, depending on context.
