hyväksytynään

Hyväksytynään is a Finnish grammatical form. It is the genitive plural of the past passive participle of the verb hyväksyä, which means "to accept" or "to approve." Therefore, hyväksytynään literally translates to "of their having been accepted" or "of their having been approved."

This form is typically used in possessive constructions, indicating that something belongs to or relates to a group of things that have been accepted or approved. For instance, it might appear in a sentence like "He left the room, satisfied with their having been accepted" (Hän lähti huoneesta tyytyväisenä hyväksytynään). In this context, "hyväksytynään" refers to the state or fact of the group's acceptance.

The use of the genitive form here signifies possession or a close relationship. It is a relatively uncommon grammatical construction in modern Finnish and often encountered in more formal or literary contexts. Understanding its components – the verb root, the past passive participle, and the genitive plural ending – helps in deciphering its meaning. The form emphasizes the completed action of acceptance pertaining to multiple entities.
