Teknisissä

Teknisissä is a Finnish adjective form meaning “in the technical [sense]” or, more precisely, the inessive plural form of tekninen, the word for “technical.” In Finnish, tekninen is an adjective that describes technology, engineering, or methods related to technology. Teknisissä is used when referring to an implied plural noun or when the noun is explicitly stated in the sentence, typically in the phrase teknisissä tiloissa or teknisissä asioissa, meaning “in the technical facilities” or “in technical matters,” respectively.

In practice, teknisissä appears as part of the inflected combination with a following noun. The base singular form tekninen has counterparts such as tekniset (nominative plural) and teknisessä (singular inessive). The inessive plural form teknisissä thus signals location or context related to technology in reference to multiple technical elements, rooms, or situations. This form is common in technical writing, architecture, engineering reports, and maintenance documentation, where precise conditions or locations within technical environments must be described.

Etymology traces tekninen to the broader family of loanwords incorporating the meaning of technology and technique, with roots in Swedish teknisk or German technisch, adapted into Finnish as tekninen. Related terms include teknologia (technology), tekniset (technical, plural), and tekninen (singular nominative). The usage of teknisissä highlights the language’s ability to convey specific situational context through case and number.
