Sallitulle

Sallitulle is a form found in Finnish grammar. It is the allative singular form of the adjective or past participle "sallittu," which means "permitted" or "allowed." The allative case in Finnish marks direction toward a recipient or destination, roughly translating to "to the permitted" in English when used with a noun phrase.

In practice, sallitulle appears mainly in formal, administrative, or historical texts rather than in everyday speech. It is one of several inflected forms of the word "sallittu," which derive from the verb "sallia" (to permit). The allative form is part of the system that allows adjectives and participles to align with the case and number of the nouns they modify. The plural allative form of the same adjective would be sallituille.

Usage notes indicate that sallitulle, like other allative adjective forms, is most commonly encountered in contexts that discuss permissions, allowances, or designated recipients of permissions. In modern colloquial Finnish, the allative with adjectives is less frequent, and more likely to be found in legal language, official communications, or older literary styles.
