korostetuissa

Korostetuissa is the inessive plural form of the Finnish past participle korostettu, meaning “emphasized” or “accented.” The form arises from combining the participle stem korostet- with the inessive plural suffix -ussa/-issä, depending on vowel harmony, yielding korostetuissa. As an adjective or participle, korostettu and its inflected forms agree with the noun they describe in number and case.

In usage, korostetuissa describes something that has been given emphasis or prominence. It is common in linguistic descriptions, academic writing, or discourse analysis to refer to elements that stand out within a larger text, argument, or medium. The form is typically attached to a plural noun in the inessive case, for example: korostetuissa teksteissä (in the emphasized texts) or korostetuissa tapauksissa (in emphasized cases).

Morphology and variation: Finnish adjectives and participles decline to reflect number and case. For korostettu, the inessive plural form is korostetuissa; other forms include nominative singular korostettu, genitive korostetun, and partitive korostettua, among others. The meaning remains “emphasized,” but the grammatical role shifts with the noun it modifies.

Examples:

- Korostetuissa teksteissä käytetään useammin vihjaavaa kieltä. (In the emphasized texts, suggestive language is used more often.)

- Korostetuissa osioissa esityksen visuaalinen painoarvo on suurempi. (In the emphasized sections, the visual emphasis of the presentation is greater.)
