Tarjottujen

Tarjottujen is the genitive plural form of the Finnish past passive participle tarjottu, which comes from the verb tarjota meaning “to offer.” In Finnish grammar, tarjottu functions as a participial adjective meaning “offered” or “presented.” Tarjottujen is used when this adjective describes a plural noun in the genitive case, for example when speaking about items that have been offered.

As a participial adjective, tarjottu agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case. The basic idea is to convey that something has been offered rather than produced or owned by the speaker. In practice, tarjottujen typically appears in noun phrases that discuss what was provided or proposed in a given context, such as a menu, a list of options, or a set of products.

Common usage examples include phrases like Tarjottujen ruokien valikoima (the selection of offered foods) or Tarjottujen vaihtoehtojen lukumäärä (the number of offered options). These constructions are common in formal writing, event programs, menus, and marketing material, where it is important to distinguish items that are available or proposed from those that are not.

Tarjottujen is specifically the genitive plural form used to modify a plural noun phrase in contexts where possession or association with the offered items is being expressed.
