harjoitutan

Harjoitutan is a Finnish verb meaning "to have something practiced" or "to make someone practice." It is the passive causative form of the verb harjoitella, which means "to practice." The verb is used when a person or entity is arranging for someone else to undergo practice or training. This could involve hiring a trainer, enrolling in a course, or assigning tasks to subordinates. For example, one might say "Minä harjoitutan koiraani" which translates to "I am having my dog trained" or "I am making my dog practice." Similarly, a manager might say "Harjoitutan uusia työntekijöitä" meaning "I am having the new employees trained" or "I am making the new employees practice." The concept implies an active role in orchestrating the learning process for another. It's distinct from simply practicing oneself or being practiced upon without one's own volition. The focus is on the intentional act of facilitating or mandating practice.
