korvauksin

Korvauksin is a Finnish word that means “with compensation” or “in compensation.” It functions as an instrumental or manner form derived from the noun korvaus, which denotes compensation, indemnity, or damages. The term is most often found in formal or legal language rather than in everyday speech.

The word is used in contexts where a remedy or payment is provided to offset losses. It appears frequently in judicial decisions, insurance communications, and official notices. A common collocation is korvauksin ja kustannuksin, meaning “with damages and costs,” which appears in court rulings and settlement documents to indicate what the losing party must pay.

Grammatically, korvauksin is the instrumental form of korvaus and is employed to specify the manner in which compensation is awarded or provided. Because it is tied to formal registers, it is less common in casual conversation, where speakers typically use simpler phrases such as korvaus or simply antaa/saada korvausta.

Etymology and related terms: korvauksin comes from korvaus (compensation, indemnity) with a suffix that forms a formal instrumental/noun phrase indicating manner. Related words include korvaus (singular), korvaukset (plural), and phrases like korvausten maksaminen, which describe the act of paying compensation. In legal and administrative Finnish, korvauksin remains a conventional and recognizable way to express compensation in a stylized, formal tone.
