kuljettavan

Kuljettavan is the genitive singular form of the Finnish adjective kuljettava, meaning transportable or to be transported. It is used when the adjective modifies a noun in a genitive construction, or more broadly in noun phrases where the noun is governed by the genitive case. The underlying form kuljettava is formed from the verb kuljettaa (to transport) with the suffix -ttava, which yields the meaning "that can be transported" or "transportable."

As a genitive form, kuljettavan appears in phrases such as kuljettavan tavaran, meaning “of the transportable goods.” In these contexts the genitive serves to attribute or relate the property of being transportable to the head noun. The corresponding nominative form is kuljettava tavara (“a transportable item”), while the partitive form is kuljettavaa tavaraa (“transportable goods” as an object of a verb).

Usage notes:

- Kuljettavan is primarily a descriptive, attributive form used in technical, logistical, or legal writing to indicate that an item is capable of being transported.

- It is one form among the -ttava participial adjectives in Finnish, with other cases and forms aligning with standard Finnish noun and adjective inflection.

Examples:

- kuljettavan tavaran lastaus, “the loading of transportable goods.”

- kuljettavan kaluston hallinta, “the management of transportable equipment.”
