Selaimesta

Selaimesta is the elative form of the Finnish noun selain, meaning browser. In Finnish grammar, the elative case marks origin or source, so selaimesta translates roughly as “from the browser.” The form is created by adding the suffix -sta/-stä to the noun, and selaimesta is used to indicate that something originates in or is obtained from the browser context, such as data, settings, or content encountered in a browser session.

In practice, selaimesta is common in technical writing, software documentation, and web development Finnish to describe the source of information or the provenance of actions that occur within a browser. It can contrast with phrases referring to other sources, such as “sivuston mukaan” (according to the site) or “laitteesta” (from the device). The term is standard within Finnish grammar and is not tied to a particular software or platform.
