kokeissa

Kokeissa is a Finnish noun form meaning “in the tests” or “in experiments.” It is the inessive plural of koke, which can refer to a test, examination, or scientific experiment. The expression is used to indicate the setting or context in which testing or measurement takes place and is common in scientific, educational, and practical writing.

In usage, kokeissa often appears with verbs or noun phrases describing actions or observations conducted during testing. For example, kokeissa käytetyt näytteet translates to “the samples used in the tests,” and kokeissa havaittiin indicates that something was observed during the experiments. The related singular form is kokeessa (in the test), and the related nominative plural is kokeet (tests).

Origin and grammar notes: kokeissa is formed from the root koke (test, experiment) with the Finnish inessive plural suffix -issa, signaling location or context within multiple tests. Finnish inflection relies on such case endings to express relationships between words, so kokeissa commonly functions as a positional or situational phrase within a sentence.

Translations and synonyms: In English, kokeissa is best rendered as “in the tests” or “in experiments.” Related terms include koe (test), kokeet (tests), kokeilu (trial, experiment), and tutkimus (research, study).
