Syntaksisesti

Syntaksisesti is a Finnish adverb meaning "in terms of syntax" or "syntactically." It is used to describe the form or arrangement of linguistic units—such as sentences, phrases, or clauses—without making claims about their meaning or style. In linguistic analysis, statements like "lause on syntaksisesti oikea" refer to the structural correctness under the rules of syntax.

Formation and related terms: The word is formed from the noun syntaksi (syntax) with the adverbial suffix -isesti. It belongs to a family of terms that express syntactic aspects, including syntaktisesti (adverb meaning "syntactically") and syntaktinen (adjective meaning "syntactic"). The two adverbs are related and are chosen according to context and rhetorical effect; syntaksisesti emphasizes the field of syntax, whereas syntaktisesti foregrounds the structural relation of the sentence.

Usage examples: - Lause on syntaksisesti oikein rakenteeltaan. - Tutkimuksessa lauserakenteita luokiteltiin syntaksisesti erilaisten kaavojen mukaan. - Syntaksisesti monimutkainen lause voi silti olla semanttisesti yksinkertainen.
