Toimittama

Toimittama is a Finnish attributive form built from the verb toimittaa, meaning to deliver or supply. It functions as a participial adjective that describes a noun as having been delivered, prepared, or provided by someone, with the agent typically indicated by the surrounding context. The suffix -ma marks a verbal stem as a participle or nominalized form, allowing toimittama to modify a noun in a way that highlights the origin or responsibility for the item.

In use, toimittama tends to appear in formal, administrative, or journalistic language where the emphasis is on who prepared or supplied the item. It is more specialized than the common past passiveместille toimitettu (delivered), which is the standard way to express that something has been delivered without naming the agent. Because toimittama carries a nuance of authorship or responsibility for the preparation, it is often found in compound noun phrases such as toimittama kirje (a letter prepared/delivered by someone) or toimittama artikkeli (an article produced by an editor). The form typically agrees with the noun it modifies in case and number.

Overall, toimittama is a legitimate Finnish participial adjective with a functional niche in writing and official discourse. For everyday reference to something that has been delivered, toimitettu is more common; toimittama is chosen when the producer or source matter for the meaning.
