esiintymisensä

Esiintymisensä is a Finnish noun form meaning “one’s appearances” or “one’s performances.” It is the third-person possessive form of the noun esiintyminen, which denotes appearance or performance in a public or artistic context. The construction is commonly used when referring to what a person or organization has performed or presented.

In Finnish, the third-person possessive suffix is -nsä (or -nsä with vowel harmony), which attaches to the base noun. From esiintyminen the form becomes esiintymisensä. The phrase is typically used in biographical, journalistic, or descriptive writing to summarize or discuss a subject’s public performances or appearances. It is distinct from the bare noun esiintyminen, which simply denotes the act of appearing or performing without reference to ownership.

Usage and nuances: Esiintymisensä can refer to a single notable appearance or to the body of performances associated with a person or group, depending on context. It is often found in profiles, reviews, and retrospectives, where the writer attributes the performances to the subject. For example, “Hänen esiintymisensä on saanut kiitosta” means “His/her performances have received praise.” The term emphasizes ownership of the appearances rather than describing the acts in isolation.
