analysoimalla

Analysoimalla is a Finnish present active participle formed from the verb analysoida and the suffix -malla. It denotes the act or method of analyzing and translates roughly as “by analyzing” or “through analysis.” The form is used to express the means by which an action is performed and often functions as an adverbial modifier in a sentence.

Formation and use: Analysoimalla is created from the verb stem analysoi- plus the -malla suffix, and it typically accompanies a direct object in the clause to indicate the method. The construction can connect to the main clause to specify how something is achieved or examined, emphasizing the process rather than the result.

Examples:

- Tiedot kerättiin analysoimalla näytteitä.

- Tutkimus eteni analysoimalla tilastollisia malleja.

- Analysoimalla dataa saatiin uusi ymmärrys.

Notes: Analysoimalla contrasts with analysointi, the noun form meaning “the act of analyzing,” and with analysoida, the base verb “to analyze.” The gerundial form is common in technical and academic Finnish to specify method and approach. In everyday language, speakers may favor simpler constructions, but analysoimalla remains standard in formal writing.
