laatimisella

Laatimisella is a Finnish term that translates to "by creation," "by drafting," or "through preparation." It is a grammatical case ending, specifically the adessive case, used with the genitive form of a noun to indicate the means, instrument, or agent by which something is done. It implies that the action or state is brought about by the entity or concept represented by the genitive noun.

For example, in the phrase "kirjoittaminen kynällä," "kynällä" is in the adessive case, meaning "by pen." The full phrase translates to "writing by pen" or "writing with a pen." Similarly, "valmistaminen käsin" means "making by hand." The "laatimisella" construction emphasizes the active role of the genitive noun in the process of creation or action. It is often used to express how something is achieved or accomplished.

The adessive case itself can also be used on its own, but the "laatimisella" form specifically highlights the active role of the genitive noun in the creation or process. This grammatical feature is characteristic of the Finnish language and its agglutinative nature, where suffixes are added to word stems to convey grammatical information. Understanding this case helps in comprehending the nuances of how actions are attributed to their means or agents in Finnish.
