esityksiäja

Esityksiäja is a Finnish word that translates to "performances and" in English. It is a conjunctive phrase used to connect different types of performances or to indicate that a list of performances will be followed by further information or an additional element. The word itself is a combination of "esityksiä" (performances, plural of esitys) and "ja" (and).

In contexts where live events or artistic expressions are discussed, esityksiäja might appear in schedules, announcements, or reviews. For instance, a program could list "Teatteriesityksiäja tanssiesityksiä" which would mean "theater performances and dance performances." Similarly, it could be used to introduce a broader category of events, such as "Musiikkiesityksiäja muita kulttuuritapahtumia" translating to "music performances and other cultural events."

The grammatical function of esityksiäja is to link nouns in the partitive plural case with the conjunction "and." This implies that the performances are not necessarily the sole focus of the sentence or clause but are part of a larger context or list. Its usage is common in everyday Finnish, particularly when detailing a variety of artistic or entertainment offerings.
