indeksiin

Indeksiin is a Finnish illative form of the noun indeks i, meaning the index. In Finnish grammar, the illative case expresses motion into or toward something, and indeksiin literally translates to “into the index” or “to the index.” It is one of several case forms used with indeks i, and its exact spelling reflects how Finnish forms nouns ending in -i take the illative suffix.

The base word indeks i covers several related meanings. It can denote a list at the back of a book that guides the reader to topics and page references, or it can refer to an index in statistics and economics, such as a price index or a market index. In computing and data contexts, indeks i is used to describe a data structure or mechanism that accelerates lookups and searches. Because indeks i is a loanword from Latin (via many languages) its meanings align with the common idea of an organized reference system.

Usage notes help distinguish Finnish grammar from semantic sense. Indeksiin is used after verbs or expressions that imply movement toward or entry into the index, or when describing actions performed with respect to the index, such as consulting or navigating it. The illative form contrasts with other case forms like indeksin (genitive) or indeks i (nominative), each serving different syntactic roles in a sentence.

In summary, indeks i refers to an index in various domains, and indeks i n is the illative form used to indicate moving into or toward that index in Finnish. The term is widely used in literature, statistics, economics, and computing contexts where indexing systems play a role.
