ilmoitettavaksi

Ilmoitettavaksi is a Finnish non-finite verb form derived from the verb ilmoittaa, which means to announce or to notify. It is the translative form of the passive present participle ilmoitettava, and it conveys that something is to be announced or notified rather than being announced at the moment.

The form is created by taking the passive present participle ilmoitettava and adding the translative suffix, yielding ilmoitettavaksi. It functions as an adjective-like modifier or as part of a non-finite clause, indicating an intended or required act of announcing. It is common in formal, bureaucratic, and legal Finnish to indicate obligations or future actions regarding notifications.

Example usage is often found in formal contexts. For instance, ilmoitettavaksi tarkoitettu asia means an issue intended to be announced. In practice, ilmoitettavaksi is used to denote the status of information that must be announced or disclosed to others, rather than in everyday speech. It is distinct from ilmoitettava, the present passive participle meaning “to be announced” in a more general sense, and from ilmoitettu, the past passive participle meaning “announced.”
