korjatuksi

Korjatuksi is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb korjata, meaning to repair. It functions as the translative form of the past passive participle korjattu (repaired). The translative case suffix -ksi marks a change of state or designation, so korjatuksi conveys that something is becoming or is to be in a repaired state, or is being described as repaired in a given context. The form is primarily found in formal, bureaucratic, or technical Finnish and can appear in clauses that describe processes, decisions, or requirements related to repair work.

Morphology and use: Korjatuksi is created by applying the translative suffix to the participial stem corresponding to korjattu. As a participial form, it can function predicatively or attributively within a sentence and does not carry person or number by itself in isolation. It behaves like other translative participial forms in Finnish grammar, signaling a transition toward the described state.

Usage notes: Korjatuksi is typically encountered in contexts where a procedure or outcome is specified—such as documentation, service orders, or maintenance planning—where something is to be repaired or has been designated to be repaired. In everyday speech, speakers more commonly use korjattu or phrasing with other constructions to express the same idea, depending on the nuance required (such as the agentive or potential senses of repair).
