kuormitetuille

Kuormitetuille is a Finnish inflected form meaning “to the burdened” or “for the burdened.” It is the plural allative form of the past participle kuormitettu (burdened), derived from the verb kuormittaa (to burden or load). In Finnish grammar the allative suffix -lle marks direction toward or recipient, so kuormitetuille specifically points to a group of people described as burdened.

In use, kuormitetuille functions as an indirect object or recipient in a sentence. It is most likely to appear in administrative, social, or logistical contexts where emphasis is placed on a group identified as bearing burdens or duties. For example, a sentence might refer to providing support or services "kuormitetuille." Examples include: “Kysely lähetettiin kuormitetuille,” meaning “The survey was sent to the burdened,” and “Hallitus on sitoutunut antamaan lisää tukea kuormitetuille,” meaning “The government has committed to providing more support for the burdened.”

Related forms include kuormitetulle (singular allative) and other case forms of kuormitettu, as well as the larger Finnish case system and its use of participial adjectives. The term is primarily linguistic and stylistic, and its appearance is more common in formal or analytical text than in everyday speech.
