Vuorijonon

Vuorijonon is the genitive singular form of the Finnish noun vuorijono, which denotes a queue or line of people or items waiting for their turn. The form is used to express possession or association with a queue in both everyday language and technical writing. For example, vuorijonon pituus means the length of the queue, and vuorijonon loppu can refer to the end of the queue. In computing, vuorijono refers to a data structure that adheres to a first-in, first-out (FIFO) policy; the genitive vuorijonon can appear in phrases describing attributes of a particular queue, such as vuorijonon tila (the state of the queue) or vuorijonon hallinta (queue management).

Etymology and morphology: vuorijono is formed from vuoro (turn) and jono (line). The genitive singular is vuorijonon, created by adding the genitive suffix -n- to the stem. This form is not a separate lexical item but a grammatical case used to indicate ownership, relation, or description of a noun that it governs.
