Yksilöivät

Yksilöivät is a Finnish grammatical case. It is used to indicate that a person or thing is acting alone or is the only one of its kind in a particular context. The singular form of the case is often translated as "alone" or "by oneself."

The yksilöivät case is formed by adding the suffix -t to the stem of the noun. For example, the word "koira" (dog) becomes "koirat" in the yksilöivät case. This form is used when referring to a single dog acting on its own, as in "Koira juoksi yksin" (The dog ran alone).

While the yksilöivät case is not as common as some other Finnish cases, it plays a role in conveying nuances of meaning. It can emphasize the isolation or singularity of an entity. The case is found in various contexts, from simple statements about individuals to more complex descriptions of actions or states. Understanding the yksilöivät case is important for a deeper comprehension of Finnish grammar and the precise expression of ideas in the language.
