laatikkoihin

Laatikkoihin is the illative plural form of the Finnish noun laatikko, meaning "into boxes" or "into the boxes." The word combines laatikko, which means a box or container, with the illative plural suffix -iin, signaling movement toward the inside of multiple boxes.

In Finnish, the illative case expresses direction toward a destination inside something, and the plural form laatikoihin is used when the destination involves more than one box. It is commonly found in contexts involving packing, organizing, storage, or shipping, where items are being placed into multiple containers.

Usage examples:

- Laitoin lelut laatikkoihin. (I put the toys into the boxes.)

- Kaikki paperit täytyy laittaa laatikoihin ennen muuttoa. (All papers need to be put into the boxes before the move.)

- Hän siirtää vanhat videot laatikoihin ja merkitsee laatikot. (He moves the old videos into boxes and labels the boxes.)

Related forms include illative singular laatikkoon (into the box) and other container-based phrases. The form laatikoihin is a common, neutral grammatical construction in everyday Finnish, frequently found in instructions, logistics, and domestic prose.
