Toteutumistaan

Toteutumistaan is a Finnish noun phrase meaning “its realization” or “its coming true.” It is derived from the verb toteutua (to come true, to be realized) and is used to refer to the process or result of something being fulfilled, such as a plan, promise, or project. The form is a common way to express that something still needs to happen or to indicate that a thing belongs to the subject in question.

In usage, toteutumistaan typically functions as a noun in the object position, often after verbs such as odottaa (to await), toivoa (to hope for), or viitata (to refer to). It emphasizes the eventual realization rather than the current state. For example, the sentence lupaukset toteutumistaan odottavat literally means “the promises await their realization” and is used to describe expectations about whether promises will come true.

Grammatically, toteutumistaan is a derivational form built from the verb toteutua, adjusted with a possessive suffix to indicate “its/that thing’s” realization. It is related to the noun toteutuminen (realization, fulfillment) and to the verb toteuttaa (to carry out, to implement). The expression is common in political and public discourse, where discussions often center on whether commitments and plans will materialize.
