identtisellä

Identtisellä is the adessive singular form of the Finnish adjective identtinen, meaning identical or corresponding. In Finnish grammar, the adessive case marks location, manner, or basis, so identtisellä is used to talk about something done in an identical way or based on identical characteristics. It commonly appears in technical and analytical contexts alongside phrases such as identtisellä tavalla or identtisellä perusteella.

In usage, identtisellä conveys similarity or sameness in method, arrangement, or characteristics. For example, in research or data reporting one might say that data is presented identtisellä tavalla, meaning the presentation follows an identical or standardized approach. Another example is identifying that two datasets were structured identtisellä perusteella, i.e., on an identical basis.

Etymology and related forms: identtinen derives from the concept of identity and sameness, with the adjective formed by the Finnish -nen suffix. The concept is connected to related terms such as identiteetti (identity) and identtisesti (adverb, meaning identically). The adessive form identtisellä is one of several inflected forms the adjective can take depending on case and number.

While identtisellä specifically marks the adessive form, other cases and phrases with identtinen are used to express similar ideas in different grammatical contexts.
