järjestelyiksi

Järjestelyiksi is a Finnish word formed as the translative plural of järjestely, meaning arrangements or organizational plans. The translative case expresses change into a new state or designation, and in plural form the ending becomes -iksi, yielding järjestelyiksi. In practice, this form is used when describing something that is being considered, designated, or converted into multiple arrangements or plans rather than as a single arrangement.

Morphology and usage: In Finnish, the suffix -ksi marks a translative meaning “into” or “as,” while -iksi is the plural counterpart. Thus järjestelyksi is the singular translative (“into an arrangement”), and järjestelyiksi is the plural translative (“into arrangements” or “as arrangements”). The form appears in formal or administrative contexts, policy discussions, and planning language, where activities or documents are reframed or reorganized as sets of arrangements.

Common contexts: Järjestelyiksi is often found in government, business, and legal texts that describe changes to procedures, schedules, or structures. It can appear in statements such as plans or proposals being changed into arrangements, or rules and guidelines being reformulated as a set of practical arrangements.

Examples:

- Suunnitelmat muutettiin järjestelyiksi. (The plans were changed into arrangements.)

- Nykyiset toimenpiteet esitetään järjestelyiksi hallinnon uudelleenjärjestämisessä.

- Tavoitteet voidaan toteuttaa, kun ne muutetaan järjestelyiksi käytännön toimiksi.
