kustannuksilta

Kustannuksilta is a Finnish word form, the plural ablative (‑lta/‑ltä) of the noun kustannus, which means "cost" or "expense." As an ablative case form, kustannuksilta is used to indicate origin, source or removal in relation to costs, often translated into English as "from the costs" or "off the costs" depending on context.

Grammatically, the form is built from the plural stem kustannuks‑ plus the case ending ‑ilta (kustannus → kustannukset → kustannuksilta). The ablative in Finnish expresses movement away from or separation from something and can also appear in idiomatic expressions describing relief, deduction or release in financial contexts.

Typical uses include statements about deductions, reimbursements or exemptions that refer to costs as the source, for example when a fee is subtracted from overall expenses or when one is freed from cost obligations. Exact translation and nuance depend on surrounding words and the broader sentence.

Related inflectional forms of the lemma kustannus include kustannukset (plural nominative), kustannusten (plural genitive) and kustannuksista (plural elative, "out of/from the costs"). Understanding case endings is important for correct meaning in Finnish financial and administrative language.
