digipeleissä

Digipeleissä is an inflected form of the Finnish noun digipeli, meaning digital game. The term digipeli combines the prefix digi- (digital) with peli (game). In nominative plural, the form is digipelit; inessive plural, which answers the question “in …,” is digipeleissä. Thus, digipeleissä translates to “in the digital games.”

Morphology and usage in Finnish follow typical compounding and inflection rules. The root digipeli denotes a digital or computer-based game, and digipelit refers to multiple such games. When speaking about actions or presence inside that domain, digipeleissä is used to indicate a location or state within the digital games themselves, for example in discussions about game design, education, or cultural contexts.

In practical use, the word appears in discussions about gaming in Finland, including education, entertainment, and research. It is not tied to a single title or genre, but to the broader category of digital or computer games. Finnish speakers may use related forms such as digipelissä (in the digital game, singular inessive) or digipeliä (partitive) depending on the sentence.

Examples:

- Digipeleissä on monipuolisia tarinoita ja monitasoisia pulmapelejä. (In digital games there are various stories and multi-level puzzle games.)

- Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan, miten digipelejä voidaan hyödyntää opetuksessa. (The study examines how digital games can be used in education.)

Related terms include digipeli, digipelit, and pelit in general. The concept reflects Finland’s active gaming culture and a long-standing interest in computer-based entertainment and education.
