arabiankielistä

arabiankielistä is a Finnish word that translates to "in Arabic language" or "of the Arabic language." It functions as an adverbial or adjectival form, indicating that something is related to, expressed in, or derived from the Arabic language. For example, one might say "kirja on arabiankielistä" meaning "the book is in the Arabic language," or refer to "arabiankielistä kulttuuria" meaning "Arabic-language culture."

The word is formed by combining the root "arabian" (referring to Arabia or Arabic) with the essive case suffix "-ksi." The essive case in Finnish often denotes a state or manner, hence "in the manner of the Arabic language" or "as the Arabic language." It is a common construction used to specify the linguistic medium of a text, speech, or cultural product. Understanding this grammatical function is key to interpreting its usage in Finnish sentences. It's important to distinguish it from "arabia," which refers to the Arabic language itself as a noun.
