koskee

Koskee is a Finnish verb form meaning "concerns" or "affects." It is the third-person singular present indicative form of the verb koskea, which literally means "to touch" but is used in figurative senses to indicate relevance or applicability. In everyday language, koskee is used to say that a matter or rule has bearing on someone or something.

Common usage examples include: "Tämä asia koskee kaikkia," meaning "This matter concerns everyone," and "Laki koskee kaikkia yrityksiä," meaning "The law applies to all companies." The form is frequently found in formal or semi-formal contexts such as news reporting, policy discussion, and legal language, where it denotes applicability or relevance.

Grammatical notes: koskea is a transitive verb, and koskee is its third-person singular present form. The negative form is "ei koske," as in "Se ei koske meitä" (“It does not concern us”). The word can be used with a variety of subjects, including abstract concepts (as in "tämä koskee tulevaisuutta") and concrete entities (as in "sopimus koskee osapuolia").
