ilmastollisiin

Ilmastollisiin is the illative plural form of the Finnish adjective ilmastollinen. It is used to describe nouns in the illative case and translates roughly as “to climate-related” or “in climate-related contexts.” In Finnish, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number and case; thus ilmastollisiin appears when the noun is plural and in the illative case. For example, ilmastollisiin vaikutuksiin (to climate-related effects), ilmastollisiin tekijöihin (to climate-related factors), and ilmastollisiin olosuhteisiin (to climate-related conditions).

Common usage occurs in scientific writing, environmental policy, and sustainability reporting, where speakers discuss climate-related aspects of phenomena, risks, or strategies. The form is not a separate concept but a grammatical variant of ilmastollinen, used to keep statements concise when referring to multiple climate-related elements. Phrases such as ilmastollisiin vaikutuksiin, ilmastollisiin tekijöihin, and ilmastollisiin olosuhteisiin are typical examples.

Etymology and meaning: ilmastollisiin is formed by combining ilmasto (climate) with the adjectival suffix -llinen and then inflecting to -isiin to mark illative plural. This reflects Finnish morphology, in which adjectives change form to match the number and case of the noun they modify. The word is primarily a grammatical form used in Finnish texts to express climate-related relationships involving multiple items or aspects.
