Valtiollisille

Valtiollisille is a Finnish adjective form meaning state-related or state-level, used to refer to actors, bodies, or actions connected to the government or state. It is the allative plural form of valtiollinen, and it is applied before a plural noun in the allative case to indicate that something is directed toward or intended for state actors or authorities.

In practice, valtiollisille appears in phrases such as valtiollisille tahoille or valtiollisille toimielimille, meaning “to state authorities” or “to state bodies.” It is not a standalone concept; rather, it is a grammatical form that accompanies a plural noun. The structure would typically be understood as “to state entities” or “for state authorities,” depending on context.

Usage notes: the form is common in administrative, legal, and political texts, where distinctions between state-level and municipal or private actors matter. As an inflected adjective, valtiollisille agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case, so accompanying nouns also appear in the allative plural (for example, toimielimille, viranomaisille).

Translation considerations: the closest English equivalents are “state authorities,” “state bodies,” or phrases like “to state authorities,” depending on the sentence. In Finnish, valtiollinen and its inflections reflect hierarchies and scopes within public administration, rather than introducing a separate concept. Related forms include valtiolliset (nominative plural) and valtiollisten (genitive plural), which show the range of inflection for the same root.
