Velkojasta

Velkojasta is the elative singular form of the Finnish noun velkoja, which means creditor or lender. In Finnish grammar, velkojasta marks source or origin, typically translating to “from the creditor” or “of the creditor” depending on the context.

In practice, velkoja refers to a person or institution to whom money is owed. The elative form velkojasta is used in legal, financial, and administrative language to indicate where information comes from, where a claim originates, or where an action is issued. For example, velkojasta saadut tiedot means “information obtained from the creditor,” and velkojasta tehty vaatimus can be read as a claim issued by the creditor.

The form is one of the many case endings in Finnish, where the suffix -sta/-stä expresses from or out of, among other nuances. It should be distinguished from the genitive velkojan (the creditor’s) and from other cases that might alter meaning in a sentence. As a technical form rather than a separate lexical item, velkojasta appears mainly in texts dealing with debt, contracts, or creditor–debtor communications.

Summary: velkojasta is a grammatical form used to indicate source or origin related to velkoja (the creditor). Its use is common in Finnish legal and financial writing, where precise indication of source, such as information or claims, is important.
