finitoivat

Finitoivat is a Finnish verb form derived from the loanword finitoida, meaning to finalize or bring to a close a process, project, or document. It is used with a plural subject, and is common in professional and administrative contexts such as information technology, procurement, project management, and contracts. The form illustrates the typical Finnish pattern of forming verbs from nouns or adjectives by adding the -oida suffix; finitoida itself is built on the root finito- (from the Italian finito meaning finished) plus the Finnish verb-ending.

In usage, finitoivat indicates that several actors are completing or have completed the finalizing step. It can appear in statements about recent actions, ongoing processes, or formal reports. The tone is neutral and pragmatic, suitable for workplace communication and documentation.

Etymology and related forms: finitoida belongs to the broad class of -oida verbs in Finnish, which convert nouns or adjectives into action verbs. As a result, related forms include infinitive finitoida, participles such as finitoiva, and other person-number variants through standard Finnish conjugation patterns. In some contexts, speakers may prefer native alternatives like viimeistellä("to finalize") or loppuun saattaa, depending on nuance and register.
