Täyttymyksensä

Täyttymyksensä is a Finnish noun phrase that translates roughly to “its/their/his/her fulfillment.” It is the third-person possessive form of täyttymys, meaning fulfillment or realization, and is formed by attaching the possessive suffix -nsä to the noun. This construction denotes that the fulfillment belongs to or is realized by a particular subject, rather than being a general concept.

In usage, täyttymyksensä appears in contexts where one discusses whether a goal, dream, or condition has been realized by someone or something. It is common in philosophical, reflective, or literary writing, as well as in biographical or evaluative passages, to emphasize that fulfillment is attributed to a specific agent or entity. The form is inherently possessive and typically functions as a noun phrase within a larger sentence.

Examples:

- Hänen täyttymyksensä ei ollut rahassa vaan perhesuhteissa. (His fulfillment was not in money but in his family relationships.)

- Taiteilijan täyttymyksensä ilmentyi mieleenpainuvassa teoksessa. (The artist’s fulfillment manifested in a memorable work.)

Notes:

- Täyttymyksensä is distinct from täyttymys (fulfillment) and is chosen when the speaker wants to specify ownership of the fulfillment.

- The construction is flexible across cases in Finnish sentences, though examples above show nominative usage within typical evaluative statements.
