iteratiivisista

Iteratiivisista is a Finnish inflected form of the adjective iteratiivinen, meaning “iterative.” It functions as the elative plural form, used when the head noun is plural and in the elative case. In practice, iteratiivisista modifies a plural noun such as prosesseista (from processes) or malleista (from models), for example “iteratiivisista prosesseista” or “iteratiivisista malleista.” The form signals origin or source related to multiple iterative items.

Morphology and formation are regular for Finnish -inen adjectives. The base form iteratiivinen changes to the stem iteratiiv-, and the elative plural suffix is -isista. Thus iteratiivinen → iteratiivisista in the elative plural. This pattern applies whenever the noun being described is in the elative plural, and the adjective agrees in gender-free Finnish grammar with the noun.

Usage and context are common in linguistics, mathematics, computer science, and project design, where iterative methods or approaches are discussed at scale. The form helps specify that statements pertain to more than one iterative item or process, as in discussions of research methods, models, or workflows.

Examples:

- Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan iteratiivisista prosesseista saatuja tuloksia. (In the study, the results obtained from iterative processes are examined.)

- Iteratiivisista malleista voidaan johtaa seuraavat päätelmät. (From iterative models, the following conclusions can be drawn.)

Iteratiivisista is a specialized grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical entry, and its proper use depends on noun plurality and the elative case. See also iteratiivinen and Finnish case inflection.
