komplisoituvien

Komplisoituvien is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb komplisoitua, meaning to become or be in the process of becoming more complicated. In linguistic terms, komplisoituvien is the genitive plural form of the participial adjective komplisoituva (becoming complicated). It functions like an attributive or substantivized modifier and is used with plural nouns in the genitive case to express a relationship of “of those that are becoming more complicated” or to describe such factors, phenomena, or processes.

Morphology and usage

The base is komplisoituva, a present participle-like adjective describing ongoing development toward increased complexity. Its genitive plural ending jegs the form komplisoituvien, which is used when the modified noun is plural and in the genitive. For example, komplisoituvien seikkojen vuoksi would translate roughly to “due to the factors that are becoming more complicated.” The form emphasizes an ongoing, evolving state rather than a completed condition.

Typical contexts

Komplisoituvien appears mainly in formal, technical, or analytical Finnish. It is common in project management, systems analysis, risk assessment, and academic writing where processes, conditions, or factors are described as gradually developing toward greater complexity. It helps to convey that the complications are not yet fixed but are evolving over time.

Related forms

A related form is komplisoituneiden, the genitive plural of komplisoitunut, indicating factors or elements that have already become complicated (a completed state). The distinction between komplisoituvien and komplisoituneiden can be important for precise expression of timing or progress.

Etymology

The term builds on the verb komplisoitua and the participial adjective komplisoituva, with komplisoituvien providing the genitive plural agreement. The underlying concept is rooted in the broader Finnish system for forming participial adjectives from verbs.
