jalostetuiksi

Jalostetuiksi is a Finnish word formed as the translative plural form of the past passive participle jalostettu, derived from the verb jalostaa meaning to refine, process, or develop. The form is used to express a change of state into refined or processed goods, typically with a following noun in the translative construction, such as tuotteiksi.

In Finnish, the translative case marks transformation or change into something else and is formed with the suffix -ksi, whose plural form is -iksi. Jalostetuiksi thus means “into refined ones” or “as refined products.” It is most often used in contexts where something is converted or prepared to become a different kind of object.

Usage and context: jalostetuiksi appears in industrial, agricultural, and economic discourse when describing processes that convert raw materials or intermediate goods into finished products. It is commonly combined with verbs like muuttaa or muuntua, as in expressions such as raaka-aineet muutettiin jalostetuiksi tuotteiksi (the raw materials were transformed into refined products) or tavoitteena on muuntaa raaka-aineet jalostetuiksi tuotteiksi (the aim is to convert the raw materials into refined products).

Translations: in English, jalostetuiksi conveys the sense of “into refined products,” “processed into,” or “turned into.” The exact translation depends on the surrounding verb and noun, but the core idea is transformation to a more processed or manufactured state.

Related forms include jalostettu (singular past passive participle), jalostettuja (partitive plural), and jalostus (the process of refining or processing).
