Reformoituihin

Reformoituihin is a Finnish inflected form of the participle reformoitunut, meaning “reformed.” It functions as the illative plural form, indicating movement toward or inclusion in groups or entities described as reformed. In practice, reformoituihin is used when the target of an action or reference is plural and in the illative case, for example when talking about joining or addressing such groups.

Etymology and morphology: the base verb is reformoida (to reform), with the related noun reformointi (reform). The past participle form reformoitunut describes something that has undergone reform, and the illative plural suffix -ihin attaches to the participle stem to yield reformoituihin. This is a standardized, productive construction in Finnish grammar, but it is somewhat specialized and mostly appears in formal or technical texts.

Usage notes: reformoituihin is not a common everyday expression. It appears in contexts discussing social, political, or organizational reform and when the writer wants to specify “to the reformed groups/entities” in plural illative form. As with many participial forms, its interpretation depends on the noun it modifies, so clarity often comes from surrounding words.

Examples:

- Keskustelussa viitattiin reformoituihin ryhmittymiin. (The discussion referred to the reform-ed groups.)

- Hankkeesta kerrottiin suunnitelmia reformoituihin yhteisöihin kohdistamalla tavalla. (The project was described with plans targeted at reform-ed communities.)
