Yhtyeisiin

Yhtyeisiin is a Finnish noun form that represents the illative plural of yhtye, meaning band or ensemble. It translates roughly as “to bands” or “into bands” and is used to describe movement toward or entry into multiple groups.

The word is formed through Finnish noun inflection. The stem yhtye- takes the illative plural suffix -isiin, yielding yhtyeisiin. This suffix pattern is common for indicating “into/onto” toward plural objects. The pronunciation follows ordinary Finnish phonology, with the final -isiin contributing a long vowel sound in typical speech.

Etymology and meaning: Yhtye comes from the concept of uniting or forming a group, and ylihteyden idea is reflected in the noun’s meaning as a musical or artistic ensemble. The illative plural form این emphasizes direction toward several bands rather than a single band.

Usage notes: Yhtyeisiin is a grammatical form used in contexts such as music journalism, linguistic examples, or discussions about someone joining or moving toward multiple musical groups. In everyday speech, speakers often adjust the construction to avoid a heavy illative plural, or rephrase to specify joining particular bands.

Examples:

- Monet muusikot ovat liittyneet useisiin yhtyeisiin uransa aikana. (Many musicians have joined several bands during their career.)

- Hän suunnittelee siirtymistä useisiin yhtyeisiin tulevan kauden aikana.
