Varauksella

Varauksella is a Finnish adessive form of the noun varaus, meaning reservation, booking, or provision. It denotes a state in which something is reserved, on hold, or set aside for a particular purpose, or a statement made with a caveat.

In everyday use, varauksella is common in contexts involving physical items, services, or plans. For example, a store or library may mark an item as varauksella to indicate it is reserved for a customer and not immediately available to others. In hospitality or retail signage, you might encounter phrases such as a pöytä on varauksella (the table is on hold) or kirja on varauksella (the book is reserved). The term can also appear in phrases that express caution or qualification, where a statement is presented with a caveat or condition.

Grammatically, varauksella is the adessive singular form of varaus. The corresponding plural form is varauksilla, used when referring to multiple reservations or held items. The word can appear in evaluative or logistical notes, especially in inventories, reservations systems, or customer communications.

Related terms include varaus (reservation/booking), varattu (reserved), and varata (to reserve). The adessive varauksella contrasts with other case forms of varaus and with related adjectives and verbs used to express reservation, booking status, or provisioning in Finnish.
