Televisiolla

Televisiolla is a Finnish locative form of the noun televisio, meaning “on the television.” The word is formed by the noun televisio plus the suffix -lla, which marks location or surface and, in this case, the medium or channel. The term is used to indicate that something happens on the television, is shown through the television medium, or that a person appears on TV.

In standard Finnish, the related form televisiossa is more commonly used when referring to something being broadcast on television. Televisiolla tends to emphasize the medium or venue itself, and it can appear in various contexts such as journalism, media commentary, or everyday speech to denote an appearance or event on television. For example, phrases may describe a person appearing televisiolla or a program being aired via televisio, with nuances depending on the speaker and register.

Televisiolla is a loanword adapted into Finnish from the English word television (via other European languages) and integrated into Finnish grammar as a regular noun. Like other loanwords ending in -io, it follows standard inflection patterns, with televisio serving as the base and -lla as the locative suffix.

Overall, televisiolla is part of Finnish media vocabulary. It appears alongside forms that reference the same idea using different grammatical angles, and its usage reflects the evolving ways audiences talk about television as a medium, channel, and place where content is consumed or presented.
