hillitäkseen

hillitäkseen is a Finnish word. It is the third-person singular illative plural form of the verb hillitä, meaning to curb, restrain, or moderate. Therefore, hillitäkseen translates to "in order to curb them" or "for them to curb." This grammatical structure implies an action being performed with the intention of controlling or limiting a group of things or people. For instance, one might say "Hallitus hyväksyi uusia lakeja hillitäkseen inflaatiota," which means "The government approved new laws in order to curb inflation." Here, "inflaatiota" is the plural illative of "inflaatio" (inflation), and "hillitäkseen" refers to the government's action to control it. The word is commonly used in contexts where control, reduction, or prevention is desired. Its specific meaning can vary slightly depending on the surrounding words and the overall context of the sentence, but the core idea of restraining or moderating remains consistent.
