demonstroimiseen

Demonstroimiseen is a Finnish nominal form derived from the verb demonstroida (to demonstrate). It refers to the act of demonstrating or to the purpose of demonstration, typically rendered in English as "for demonstration" or "to demonstrate" depending on the sentence structure.

The suffix -miseen is a nominalizing and purposive inflection that marks activities or aims. It is commonly used in Finnish to talk about demonstration activities or the equipment and steps needed for demonstration, e.g., "demonstroimiseen käytettävät välineet" (equipment for demonstrations). The form is usually part of larger noun phrases and can function as a complement or object.

Used in education, science communication, and technical presentations, demonstroimiseen denotes the demonstrative portion of a lesson, a lab exercise, or outreach event. It appears in curricula and manuals to distinguish demonstration-based methods from theoretical instruction or practical exercises.

Do not confuse with demonstrointi (the act of demonstrating) or demonstraatio (a demonstration in the sense of a display or public protest). While related, demonstroimiseen emphasizes the act or purpose within a sentence; demonstraatio often refers to the demonstration itself as a thing, and demonstrointi is a more general term for demonstration activities.

As a Finnish grammatical form, it illustrates how Finnish uses infinitival nouns to express purpose and activity. The term is primarily used in Finnish-language texts concerning education, research communication, and technical demonstrations.
