käskyksi

käskyksi is a Finnish word that translates to "as ordered" or "by command" in English. It is a grammatical construction used to indicate that something has been done or will be done according to a specific instruction or order. The word itself is a dative plural form of the noun "käsky," which means "command" or "order."

In practice, käskyksi is often used in situations where an action is carried out without question or deliberation, simply because it has been mandated. For example, if a soldier is told to march, and they do so, their action could be described as happening käskyksi. The phrase implies a sense of duty and obedience.

The usage of käskyksi can be found in various contexts, from military and official settings to more informal situations where instructions are given. It emphasizes the source of the action being an external command rather than an internal decision. While it can denote strict adherence to orders, it doesn't necessarily carry a negative connotation; it simply describes the manner in which an action was performed. The phrase highlights the hierarchical nature of certain interactions and the expectation of compliance. It is a concise way to convey that an action was undertaken as a direct result of an order.
