innoitettujen

Innoitettujen is a Finnish grammatical form that functions as the genitive plural of the adjective innoitettu, meaning “inspired” or “moved to inspiration.” It is used to indicate possession or association with a group described as inspired, and it appears most often in noun phrases such as innoitettujen tekijöiden (the inspired artists) or innoitettujen kirjoittajien teokset (the works of the inspired writers). The form is not a standalone noun but an inflected form of an adjective.

The base adjective innoitettu derives from a verb meaning to inspire or to excite, and its past participle form is used to describe beings or things that have inspired or elicited inspiration. In Finnish, the genitive plural ending of -ttu adjectives is -ttujen, yielding innoitettujen. This word is most common in literary or descriptive prose and in quoted phrases referring to a group described as inspired.

In usage, care should be taken not to confuse innoitettujen with other related forms such as innoitettu (singular) or innoitettua (partitive singular). The form also appears in compound noun phrases and scholarly writing when describing groups or bodies of inspired individuals.
