enumeratiivisessa

Enumeratiivisessa is a Finnish grammatical term referring to the inessive singular form of the adjective enumeratiivinen. The word translates roughly as “in the enumerative” and is used primarily in linguistic description to indicate a relationship to enumeration or to formulations that express listing of items.

Formation and inflection: Finnish adjectives decline for case and number. Adjective forms ending in -inen, such as enumeratiivinen, take the inessive singular ending -ssa/-ssä. The common form is enumeratiivisessa. This form is used when the noun it modifies is in the inessive case, or more broadly when describing something as being in an enumerative context. For example, phrases like enumeratiivisessa muodossa (in the enumerative form) and enumeratiivisessa käytössä (in enumerative use) illustrate its typical usage.

Usage and sense: The term is technical and mainly found in linguistic, grammatical, and academic discussions about the Finnish language. It helps specify a function related to enumeration, such as how words are formed or used when presenting a list or sequence of items. Because it belongs to specialized discourse,Enumeratiivisessa is less common in everyday Finnish outside of descriptive or pedagogical texts.

Variant considerations: As with other Finnish adjectives, the exact form can vary with the noun’s number and case in a sentence, but enumeratiivisessa represents the standard inessive singular form for this adjective. It serves as a concise label for discussions of enumerative form or usage within Finnish grammar and related fields.
