Uusien

uusien is the genitive plural form of the Finnish adjective uusi, meaning "new." In Finnish, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number and case, so uusien appears when the noun it describes is in the genitive plural. This form signals a relational or possessive sense, such as “the new of …” or “the new ones belonging to …,” within a larger noun phrase.

Usage examples illustrate its function. For instance, in the phrase the price of the new books, Finnish uses uusien kirjojen hinta, where both kirjojen and uusien are in the genitive plural. Another example is the feedback from the new customers, kirjojen uusien asiakkaiden palaute, though more common wording would place uusien directly before kirjojen in a closely related structure. In general, uusien describes plural entities that are in a genitive relationship to another noun in the sentence.

Morphology and related forms: uusien is part of a family of inflections for uusi. Related forms include nominative plural uudet, genitive singular uuden, and partitive plural uisia, reflecting different combinations of number and case for the same base adjective.
