Suojaisi

Suojaisi is a Finnish verb form. It is the conditional mood of the verb suojata, meaning to protect. The conditional is used to express hypothetical or potential actions, or to make polite requests in some contexts.

Forms and usage

In Finnish, the conditional mood is formed with a specific suffix pattern applied to the verb stem. For suojata, common forms include: minä suojaisin, sinä suojaisit, hän suojaisi, me suojaisimme, te suojaisitte, he suojaisivat. These forms allow speakers to discuss what would happen under certain circumstances, or to soften statements about protection.

Examples

Hän suojaisi sinua, jos hänellä olisi mahdollisuus. (He would protect you if he had a chance.)

Hän suojaisi lapsia, kunnes tilanne on ohi. (He would protect the children until the situation is over.)

Negation is formed with en: en suojaisi. (I would not protect.)

Etymology and notes

Suojaisi is derived from suojata, with the conditional suffix -isi- and the personal endings. It is a verb form, not a noun or a proper name, and it typically appears within clauses rather than as a standalone term. Outside Finnish, the string suojaisi may be encountered as a morphological form in language studies or translated text.
