kokoontumisiin

Kokoontumisiin is the illative plural form of the Finnish noun kokoontuminen, which means a gathering or meeting. The illative case in Finnish expresses movement into or toward something, and kokoontumisiin is used when referring to going to or taking part in multiple gatherings or to gatherings in a general sense.

The form is commonly used with verbs that indicate motion or participation, such as mennä (to go), osallistua (to participate), tai suuntautua (to head toward). Examples include: «Hän osallistuu kokoontumisiin» (He participates in gatherings) and «Poliisi valvoi kokoontumisiin liittyviä rajoituksia» (The police monitored restrictions related to gatherings). In public or regulatory language, kokoontumisiin appears in discussions about events, protests, or safety guidelines that concern gatherings.

Usage notes: kokoontumisiin denotes movement toward or involvement in more than one gathering, or in a general sense of gatherings as a category. It contrasts with the singular illative kokoontumiseeen/kokoontumiseen, which refers to a single gathering. The term often appears in news reporting, official documents, and discourse on event planning and public order.

Related concepts include kokoontuminen (a single gathering), kokoontumiset (the plural nominative), and compounds such as kokoontumisrajoitukset (gathering restrictions) or kokoontumispaikka (gathering place). As a grammatical form, kokoontumisiin is part of a broader system of Finnish illative plurals used to express direction or involvement toward multiple events.
