haluttuja

Haluttuja is a Finnish adjective form that means "desired" or "wanted" in plural partitive usage. It functions as a modifier for plural, indefinite objects in sentences where the speaker refers to things that are desired or sought after. The word originates from the verb haluta (to want) and the past participle haluttu, which describes something that has been desired.

In practice, haluttuja is used with a noun in partitive plural, often for generic or indefinite references: haluttuja kohteita (targets or objects that are desired), haluttuja ominaisuuksia (desired features), haluttuja tuotteita (desired products). The form expresses both plurality and the indefinite nature of the object due to the partitive case.

Grammatically, haluttuja is the plural partitive form of the adjective haluttu. Finnish adjectives decline to agree with the noun in case and number; when the noun is in partitive plural, the adjective takes the corresponding plural partitive ending, as in haluttuja kohteita.

Usage notes: The form is common in discussions of design, market research, consumer preferences, and general descriptions of aims or desires. It appears in both formal and informal contexts.

Translations: In English, haluttuja translates as "desired" or "preferred" when describing multiple nouns, such as "desired features" or "preferred products." In other languages, it conveys the sense of desirability attached to the described items.

There is no separate entry beyond Finnish grammar for haluttuja. It is not a proper noun or organization; rather, it is a common grammatical form used to describe multiple desired items.
