Toimitettuna

Toimitettuna is a Finnish participial form derived from the verb toimittaa, meaning to deliver or supply. It is used to indicate that something has been delivered and is in the delivered state. In practical use, toimitettuna appears mainly in formal, administrative, and logistics texts, often as a status marker in inventories, shipping documents, invoices, or delivery notes.

Formation and nuance: The form is built from the past participle suffix -ttu/-tty attached to the verb stem, with the -na/-nä ending contributing to its use as a descriptive or predicative form. This yields a word that functions as an adjective or predicative complement, signaling that the object has already reached its destination or recipient. In everyday speech, the simpler past passive participle toimitettu is more common, while toimitettuna tends to appear in written records or system labels.

Usage notes: In many contexts, toimitettuna appears as a status label or column heading in electronic systems and documentation. It is commonly used alongside other status terms such as toimitettu, vastaanotettu, or keskeytetty to convey the current state of a shipment, order, or delivery process. The expression does not denote the action of delivering itself but rather the result of that action.
