kansanterveydellisiin

Kansanterveydellisiin is a Finnish adjective form meaning related to public health. It is the illative plural form of kansanterveydellinen, used when the noun it modifies is plural and in the illative case (often conveying “to/into” or in the sense of addressing or relating to). For example, kansanterveydellisiin vaikutuksiin means to public-health-related effects.

The base term kansanterveys denotes the field of public health, encompassing the prevention of disease, promotion of health, and related policies. The adjective kansanterveydellinen is formed from kansanterveys with the suffix -ellinen to indicate belonging or relating to. In Finnish, adjectives inflect for case and number, so kansanterveydellisiin appears specifically in the illative plural form; other inflected forms include kansanterveydellisiä (partitive plural) and kansanterveydelliseen (illative singular), among others.

Usage and context: Kansanterveydellisiin is common in formal Finnish, especially in health policy, public health research, and academic writing. It signals that a discussion or analysis centers on aspects related to public health rather than on other domains such as clinical medicine or environmental health alone.
