demografisiin

Demografisiin is a Finnish grammatical form of the adjective demografinen, which means demographic. In Finnish, demografinen describes matters related to populations, and demografisiin is one of the inflected forms used when the adjective modifies a noun in a specific case. It is not a standalone concept in Finnish, but a grammatical variant of the root term used in context.

Demography, the study of populations, is a scientific field that analyzes the size, structure, distribution, and dynamics of populations. It examines how populations change over time due to births, deaths, and migration, and how these factors interact with geography, economics, and social conditions. Key data sources include censuses, vital statistics, and large-scale surveys, which help researchers estimate metrics such as population size, age distribution, fertility rates, life expectancy, and migration patterns.

Demographic analysis informs a wide range of policy and planning activities. Governments and organizations use demographic data to allocate resources in health care, education, housing, and infrastructure; to forecast labor market needs; and to assess social protection needs. Researchers also study subpopulations and demographic transitions—shifts in fertility and mortality that accompany development—and their implications for economies and institutions.

In linguistic usage, demografisiin illustrates how Finnish adjectives adapt to grammatical context, illustrating how the same root concept—demografinen—appears in different forms to modify nouns.
