kalustossa

Kalustossa is the inessive singular form of the Finnish noun kalusto, meaning equipment, apparatus, or furnishings that outfit a space or operation. Kalusto refers to the collective items used in a particular context, such as a workshop, vehicle, or building. Kalustossa therefore conveys “in the equipment” or “in the fittings” and is used to indicate location, inclusion, or the state of the equipment within a space or system.

Grammatical notes: Kalusto is a common Finnish noun and follows standard inflection patterns. The inessive suffix -ssa/-ssä yields kalustossa. Other common forms include kaluston (genitive) and kalustoa (partitive); additional case forms reflect standard Finnish grammar.

Usage examples: In an office, the kalustossa includes desks, chairs, and computers. For example, “Toimistomme kalustossa on uusia tietokoneita, pöytiä ja ergonomisia tuoleja.” In a school laboratory, kalustossa features modern devices and safety equipment, as in “Koululaboratoriossa kalustossa on nykyaikaisia laitteita ja turvallisuusvarusteita.”

Context and scope: Kalustossa is used to describe what constitutes the equipment or furnishings within a space, whether it is a workplace, vehicle, facility, or display area. It is often employed in inventories, facility planning, or descriptions of how a space is outfitted.
