Suojatuissa

Suojatuissa is the Finnish inessive plural form of the adjective or past participle suojattu, meaning "protected" or "sheltered". Morphologically it indicates location and plurality, roughly translating to "in protected (places/items)" in English. As an inflected form rather than a dictionary headword, it appears in contexts that describe objects, areas or data being located within or kept inside protected spaces (for example: suojatuissa tiloissa, "in protected facilities").

The stem suojattu derives from the verb suojata ("to protect") and the noun suoja ("shelter, protection"). Suojatuissa is used across registers but is especially common in legal, technical and administrative language when specifying storage, handling or conservation conditions: for instance, equipment stored in secured containers, archives held in protected rooms, or environments designated for species conservation.

Syntactically, suojatuissa functions as an attributive or locative adjective within a noun phrase or as part of a larger clause indicating place. It co-occurs with case-marked nouns (e.g., suojatuissa tiloissa, suojatuissa säiliöissä) and participates in regular Finnish adjective agreement and case inflection patterns. Because it is a form dependent on context, suojatuissa is typically encountered in full phrases rather than as an isolated lexical entry.
