dokkaukset
Dokkaukset is a term that does not have a single, established meaning in Finnish.

In many Finnish contexts, the standard vocabulary would use telakointi for ship docking or docking maneuvers in space, rather than dokkauksi/dokkaukset.
Possible readings of dokkauksi/dokkaukset include:
- Maritime or spaceflight context: some writers or translation attempts use dokkauksi to refer to docking events
