Todisteidensa

Todisteidensa is a Finnish linguistic form meaning "their evidence" or "evidence of theirs." It is the genitive plural possessive form derived from todisteet, the plural of todiste (evidence). The form is used in written and formal Finnish to attribute evidence to a group of people or to a set of sources.

Formation: todisteet (evidence, plural) plus the third-person plural possessive suffix -idensa yields todisteidensa. The suffix attaches to the plural noun and is subject to Finnish vowel harmony. Finnish also has other possessive forms for different persons, but -idensa specifically marks possession by "they" for a plural head noun.

Usage: Todisteidensa is common in legal, academic, and journalistic texts when it is important to attribute evidence to multiple parties. Examples include todisteidensa mukaan ("according to their evidence") and todisteidensa valossa ("in light of their evidence").

Notes: The term is not a standalone concept beyond its grammatical use; it is an inflectional form that appears as part of larger clauses and does not denote a separate entity or organization.
