auktorisoidulta

Auktorisoidulta is the elative form of the Finnish adjective auktorisoitu, meaning "authorized." In Finnish, the elative suffix -lta/-ltä expresses origin or source, so auktorisoidulta functions as a postposed modifier that indicates something comes from an authorized party or authority. It is typically used with a following noun phrase to specify the source, rather than standing alone.

Usage and meaning:

Auktorisoidulta is common in formal or official language, especially when the provenance of information, documents, or statements must be stated as legitimately approved or licensed. It conveys that the referenced source possesses official authorization or certification.

Examples:

- Tiedote on peräisin auktorisoidulta viranomaiselta. (The notice originates from an authorized authority.)

- Tiedot on peräisin auktorisoidulta lähteeltä. (The information comes from an authorized source.)

Context and relation to other terms:

The term appears in legal, regulatory, and journalistic contexts where credibility and legitimacy of the source are important. Related terms include auktorisointi (authorization), auktorisoitu (authorized), and lähde (source). The phrase emphasizes provenance rather than the content’s intrinsic quality.

Notes:

Auktorisoidulta is a specialized, formal expression. Its use may be opaque to speakers outside formal Finnish discourse, but it effectively signals that the source has official authorization.
