arvioitavissa

Arvioitavissa is a Finnish participial form that functions as an adjective, meaning that something is able to be evaluated or assessed. It is formed from the verb arvioida (to evaluate or assess) with the present passive participle suffix -ttava and the inessive suffix -ssa, giving arvioitavissa, which conveys a state of feasibility or possibility regarding evaluation. The construction is common in technical, administrative, and research language.

Usage and nuances

Arvioitavissa describes data, proposals, plans, risks, or other objects that can be subjected to evaluation using defined criteria or metrics. It is often used in predicative position (the object “is evaluable”) or as a modifier in noun phrases, for example: arvioitavissa oleva tieto (information that can be evaluated), arvioitavissa oleva riski (an evaluable risk). The term emphasizes feasibility of assessment rather than the outcome of the assessment.
