asianajajansa

Asianajajansa is the Finnish third-person possessive form used with the noun asianajaja, meaning attorney or lawyer. It denotes possession by the subject of the discourse and is typically translated as "his/her/its attorney's" or "their attorney's" in English. The form arises from attaching the third-person possessive suffix -nsä (or -nsa) to the noun, with vowel harmony influencing the suffix appearance.

In practice, asianajajansa appears in legal, journalistic, and everyday language to refer to things belonging to a lawyer connected to a person or case. Common phrases include asianajajansa mukaan ("according to his/her attorney"), asianajajansa asiakkaat ("the attorney's clients"), and asianajajansa neuvot ("the attorney's advice").

Notes: Asianajajansa is a grammatical device rather than a standalone concept, illustrating Finnish possessive morphology. The suffix form (nsä vs nsa) follows vowel harmony and the stem’s vowels; in standard written Finnish it appears as asianajajansa. The construction is most natural when the possessor is known in context and can be used with both singular and plural nouns in similar patterns.
