jaetetun

Jaetetun is the genitive singular form of the Finnish past passive participle jaettu, which comes from the verb jakaa meaning to divide or to distribute. In Finnish grammar, past passive participles often function as adjectives or adjectival nouns, describing something that has been divided or allocated. Jaetun specifically marks the genitive and is used when the modified noun is in the genitive case, typically in noun phrases that express possession or association.

Jaetetun is commonly found in formal, academic, or technical language where distributed or allocated items are described. For example, jaetetun materiaalin laatu means “the quality of the distributed material,” where materiaalin is the genitive singular of materiaali. The form follows the general pattern of Finnish adjective-like forms and agrees with the case of the noun it describes.

Morphology and related forms: jaettu is the nominative form, jaetun is the genitive singular, jaetut is the nominative plural, and jaettujen is the genitive plural. Jaetun functions as an attributive modifier in phrases such as jaetetun resurssin hallinta (the management of the distributed resource) or jaetun tiedon käyttö (the use of the distributed information). It does not stand alone as a separate lexical item; its meaning arises from the verb jakaa and the grammatical context.
