Suorittajina

Suorittajina is a Finnish word form derived from suorittaja, meaning a doer, performer, or executor. The form suorittajina conveys the role or capacity of more than one agent, roughly translating to “as executors” or “as performers.” It is used to describe people or entities acting in a particular capacity within a group or project.

Morphology and usage notes

The base suorittaja refers to a person who carries out tasks or actions. The suffix -ina is used to create a plural role-form, indicating the group’s function rather than a single individual. In sentences, suorittajina is commonly used with verbs like toimia (to act) or toimivat (they act), for example: he toimivat suorittajina (they function as executors/performers). The singular counterpart is suorittajana (as an executor/performer).

Contexts and nuance

Suorittajina is encountered in organizational, project-management, or contractual contexts where tasks or responsibilities are distributed among multiple people. It can denote legitimate, delegated roles as well as generic “actors” carrying out specified actions. As with many agentive terms, the exact meaning depends on the surrounding text and the actions described.

Examples

- Projektissa osallistujat jaettiin suorittajina eri osa-alueisiin. (In the project, participants were divided as executors/performers of different areas.)

- He toimivat suorittajina projektin laadunvarmistuksessa. (They acted as executors/performers in the project’s quality assurance.)
