arvoon

Arvoon is a Finnish linguistic term referring to a specific inflected form of the noun arvo, which means value, worth, or significance. Arvoon is the illative singular form, used to express movement into or toward the domain of value—an abstract rather than a physical destination. In Finnish grammar, the illative is one of several locative cases that indicate direction or destination, and the exact suffix pattern depends on the stem and vowel harmony. For arvo, the illative singular takes the form arvoon.

In practical use, arvoon commonly appears in linguistic discussions of Finnish morphology, in grammar references illustrating noun inflection, or in written texts that treat abstract concepts of value or importance as a destination. It is not a frequented form in everyday speech, where speakers may convey similar ideas through other constructions without employing the illative form.

As a grammatical form, arvoon does not function as an independent lexical item beyond its role as an illative inflection of arvo. Outside of Finnish, the sequence arvoon may occur as part of proper nouns or in non-Finnish contexts without carrying a standard meaning in Finnish grammar.
