Taiteltuja

Taiteltuja is a Finnish word meaning folded or creased, used as an adjective to describe objects that have been folded. It is the plural form of the past participle taiteltu and is typically used with nouns to indicate that the items have undergone folding, bending, or pleating.

In practice, taiteltuja describes things such as folded papers or maps. Examples include taiteltuja papereita (folded papers) and taiteltuja karttoja (folded maps). The term can also apply to fabrics, brochures, or other materials that are produced or presented in a folded form. It does not specify how the folding was done; it only signals that the item has been folded.

Usage notes: taiteltuja is commonly used in neutral, descriptive contexts such as publishing, design, packaging, or crafts. It functions as an attributive modifier in noun phrases and is suitable for describing multiple folded items in partitive or other cases depending on the sentence.
