digitalisoitunutta

Digitalisoitunutta is a Finnish adjective form used to describe material, data, or processes that have undergone digitization. It denotes a state in which content has been converted from analog or non-digital form into digital form, typically through digitization efforts or digital technologies. The word arises from the verb digitalisoitua (to become digitized) and the participle digitalisoitunut, with digitalisoitunutta being its partitive singular form, commonly used after indefinite or partial objects in Finnish grammar.

Etymologically, digitalisoitunut combines digitalisaatio (digitization) with the verb stem digitalisoida, followed by the participial ending. The partitive form digitalisoitunutta appears in phrases describing an amount or portion of digitized material, such as digitalisoitunutta aineistoa (digitized material) or digitalisoitunutta dataa (digitized data).

Usage and nuance tend to emphasize the state of digitization rather than the inherent digital nature of the object. In Finnish, digitalisoitunutta is frequently employed in archives, libraries, museums, research, and business contexts to distinguish digitized content from originally digital or analog forms. It is often contrasted with analoginen (analog) or digitaalinen (digital in a general sense).

Examples: Arkistomateriaali on digitalisoitunutta; digitoidun ja digitalisoituneen materiaalin management is common in modern repositories. See also digitalisaatio, digitointi, and digitaalinen for related concepts.
