esitettyjä

Esitettyjä is the partitive plural form of the Finnish past passive participle esitetty, derived from the verb esittää, which means to present, show, or put forward. As a participial adjective, esitettyjä describes things that have been presented or proposed. It is used when the modified noun is in the partitive case (for example, esitettyjä kysymyksiä, esitettyjä vaihtoehtoja) or when the reference is indefinite.

In Finnish, past participles can function as adjectives and must agree in number and case with the noun they modify. The nominative plural form is esitetyt, while esitettyjä is used with partitive plural nouns. The form is common in formal writing, reports, minutes, and media discourse, where items that have been presented or proposed are being referenced.

Usage and nuance: esitettyjä emphasizes that the items have already been presented or put forward, rather than being merely suggested. It can refer to statements, questions, options, findings, or evidence that were introduced in a prior context and are now being discussed, assessed, or acted upon.

Examples: Esitettyjä kysymyksiä käsitellään kokouksessa. Esitettyjä vaihtoehtoja voidaan harkita. Esitettyjä todisteita ei ole vielä tutkittu. These constructions illustrate how esitettyjä marks objects that have previously been presented and are the focus of subsequent consideration or evaluation.
