johtolankojen

johtolankojen is the genitive plural form of johtolanka, a Finnish noun meaning a lead wire, guide rope, or cord used to guide, pull, or conduct something. The term appears primarily in technical texts and is context-dependent, referring either to electrical conductors or to guiding lines in mechanical or nautical settings.

In electrical engineering or electronics, johtolanka may denote a conductor or lead wire connecting components or sensors. In construction, maritime, forestry, or rigging contexts, it can refer to a rope or cord used as a guide line, stabilizing, directing, or positioning equipment, loads, or structures. The exact meaning is determined by surrounding terminology, for example phrases describing the placement, tension, or attachment of johtolankojen components.

Etymology: The word combines johto meaning “lead, conductor” and lanka meaning “thread, wire.” The genitive plural johtolankojen marks possession or description, as in “the guide wires” or “of the guide wires.” Related forms include johtolanka (singular) and johtolangat (nominative plural).
