aurinkoisessa

Aurinkoisessa is a Finnish adjective form meaning "in the sunny" or "sunny," specifically the inessive singular form of aurinkoinen. It is used to describe a noun in the inessive case, indicating location or state. The form appears in phrases such as aurinkoisessa kaupungissa (in the sunny city) or aurinkoisessa säässä (in sunny weather). In Finnish grammar, adjectives agree with the noun in number and case, so aurinkoinen becomes aurinkoisessa when modifying a singular noun in the inessive.

Usage of aurinkoisessa is typically tied to contexts describing location or condition rather than standing alone. It functions in the same way as other inessive adjective forms, signaling that the noun it describes is situated in a sunny or sunlit state. Common collocations include phrases about places, weather, or scenes described as sunny.

Examples:

- Aurinkoisessa kaupungissa ihmiset nauttivat kahvitauosta terasseilla. (In the sunny city, people enjoy coffee on terraces.)

- Sääennuste lupaa aurinkoista ja aurinkoisessa säässä ei tarvitse palella. (The weather forecast promises sunny weather; in sunny conditions one does not need to feel cold.)
