Tykättyjä

Tykättyjä is a Finnish term that refers to items that have been liked. It is the plural partitive form of the past passive participle tykätty, meaning “liked.” The word is typically used with a following noun in partitive or accusative plural, forming phrases such as tykättyjä kuvia (liked photos) or tykättyjä postauksia (liked posts). In practice, tykättyjä appears in descriptive text, lists, or user-interface contexts dealing with engagement and popularity on social media, rather than as a standalone noun.

Grammatical notes: tykätty is derived from the verb tykätä, “to like.” The suffix -jä marks the plural partitive when the participle modifies a plural noun. The form agrees with the noun it describes; for example, tykättyjä kuvia means “liked pictures,” and tykättyjä artikkeleita means “liked articles.” The standalone usage of tykättyjä is uncommon; it usually functions as part of a larger noun phrase.

Usage context: In Finnish online media and digital platforms, tykättyjä appears in discussions of what content has received positive engagement. It can appear in headings, captions, or summaries that categorize content by popularity, though more common expressions for general talk are tykätyt tai tykkäykset, depending on regional or stylistic preferences.
