Sahojen

Sahojen is the genitive plural form of the Finnish noun saha, which means saw. The form sahojen is used to indicate possession or association in phrases involving more than one saw, functioning similarly to the English “of the saws” or the possessive form in compound noun phrases.

In Finnish, sahojen is typically followed by a noun in the nominative or other case that denotes what belongs to the saws or what is related to them. Examples include sahojen terät (the blades of the saws), sahojen hinta (the price of the saws), and sahojen omistajat (the owners of the saws). These constructions illustrate how the genitive plural marks the relationship between the owner or attribute and the plural noun it relates to.

Sahojen does not stand alone as a lexical item with a separate meaning; rather, it is a grammatical form derived from saha. Its use is common in everyday speech and writing when discussing multiple saws and their properties, ownership, or related actions. Because Finnish uses inflection to express possession, sahojen functions without additional markers beyond the genitive plural ending.

The concept is primarily of interest in discussions of Finnish grammar and morphology, and in examples illustrating how genitive plural forms build noun phrases. For broader comprehension, it is helpful to compare sahojen with other genitive plural forms of related nouns, such as talojen (of houses) or koirien (of dogs).
