aikakausille

Aikakausille is a Finnish grammatical form used to indicate destination or recipient in relation to periodicals, such as magazines or journals. It represents a plural allative construction, marking “to the periodicals” or “for the periodicals” in sentences that describe sending, delivering, or addressing materials to those publications.

In Finnish, aikakauslehti means a periodical or magazine. When talking about periodicals as recipients, the form aikakausille is used to specify that the action targets multiple periodicals. This contrasts with other cases that mark origin, possession, or the subject of an action. The exact spelling and pronunciation follow standard Finnish allative patterns, and the form is most common in written, formal, or industry-specific contexts.

Usage of aikakausille is typical in publishing, distribution, and media-relations language. It appears in statements about sending articles, advertisements, or information to periodicals, or in planning discussions that involve addressing multiple magazines. Because the term is specialized, it is less common in everyday speech unless discussing editorial workflows or press outreach.

Example sentences illustrate its function: “Artikkeli lähetettiin aikakausille.” (The article was sent to periodicals.) “Kustantaja suunnitteli markkinointikampanjan aikakausille.” (The publisher planned the marketing campaign for periodicals.) These usages show aikakausille as a destination marker for actions involving magazines, highlighting its role in formal communication about publishing and media coordination.
