Tarkisteta

Tarkisteta is not a widely recognized standalone term in Finnish dictionaries. It can appear as a nonstandard or dialectal form related to the verb tarkistaa, which means "to check" or "to verify." Because it is not part of standard modern Finnish, information about tarkisteta is limited and its meaning is highly dependent on context.

In Finnish grammar, the closely related and normative forms of tarkistaa include tarkistaa (active infinitive), tarkistetaan (present passive, "is checked"), tarkistettiin (past passive, "was checked"), and tarkistettava (to be checked, used in adjectival or noun-like constructions). The sequence tarkisteta does not belong to the canonical system of finite or non-finite forms in contemporary Finnish. If tarkisteta appears, it is usually a typographical error or a nonstandard/dialectal variant rather than a fixed grammatical category.

Occasionally, writers or translators might encounter tarkisteta in legacy texts or in informal data-entry contexts where a verification step is signaled, but such usage is not normative in standard Finnish. Readers encountering tarkisteta should rely on surrounding text to infer the intended sense.

For clarity in standard Finnish, preferred alternatives to convey the idea of something that should be checked are tarkistettava (to be checked) or a finite form such as tarkistetaan (is checked). The phrase tarkistettu tieto or tarkistettava tieto is commonly used to refer to information that requires verification.
