kamerassa

Kamerassa is the inessive singular form of the Finnish noun kamera, meaning “in the camera” or “inside the camera.” It is used to indicate location, specifically that something is located within the camera.

In Finnish grammar, the inessive case is formed with the suffix -ssa or -ssä depending on vowel harmony; for most stems ending in back vowels, -ssa is used. Since kamera ends with the back vowel a, the correct form is kamerassa. The form can appear in everyday language when describing the position of objects, contents, or actions performed inside the camera.

Common uses include stating what is inside a camera or where an object is stored. For example, “Kamerassa on muistikortti” translates to “There is a memory card in the camera.” The form also appears in descriptive or narrative contexts, such as detailing features or contents accessible inside a camera.

Related terms and forms include the base noun kamera (camera) and other Finnish case forms of the word, such as kamerasta (from the camera) or kameralle (to the camera). The inessive form kamerassa is part of the broader Finnish system of locative cases used to express position and containment.
