kuljettavaa

Kuljettavaa is a Finnish word formed as the partitive singular of the present passive participle kuljetettava, which comes from the verb kuljettaa meaning “to transport.” In use, kuljettavaa describes something that is to be transported.

In Finnish grammar, the participle kuljetettava functions as an adjective-like form. When it modifies a noun whose case is partitive, the form becomes kuljettavaa. For example, kuljetettavaa tavaraa means “goods to be transported.” In contrast, the nominative form kuljetettava tavara means “a thing to be transported.” The distinction between kuljettettava (nominative) and kuljetettavaa (partitive) often depends on sentence structure and whether the associated noun is in partitive or is part of a negated or indefinite construction.

Usage and examples:

- Kuljetettavaa tavaraa ei saa jättää ilman valvontaa. (“Goods to be transported must not be left unattended.”)

- Tilaus sisältää kuljetettavaa materiaalia. (“The order contains material to be transported.”)

- Kuljetettavaa ei ole vielä tarkennettu kriittisiä seikkoja varten. (Context: “To-be-transported items have not yet been specified.”)
