liittyvässä

liittyvässä is the inessive singular form of the Finnish adjective liittyvä, which carries the meaning related, connected, or pertaining to. The base adjective liittyvä is derived from the verb liittyä, meaning to relate, join, or be connected. As an adjective, liittyvä describes a noun and agrees with it in case, number, and definiteness.

In usage, liittyvässä functions as part of a noun phrase to specify the context, condition, or aspect that is related to something else. It is commonly found in formal or academic Finnish, particularly in phrases that discuss connections, relevance, or relationships between concepts, events, or entities. For example, in liittyvässä kontekstissa means in the related context, in liittyvässä tutkimuksessa means in the related study, and in liittyvässä tapauksessa means in the related case.

The form is one of several inflected forms of the adjective, which decline to reflect case and number. Other forms include liittyvää (genitive), liittyvää (partitive), liittyvää (partitive plural), and so on, depending on the noun they modify. This flexibility allows liittyvä to link related ideas or data within broader discussions without repeating nouns.

Etymologically, liittyvä traces to the verb liittyä and the nominalizing suffix -vä, producing an adjective that denotes a relationship or connection to another element. Related terms include liittyä (to relate or join), liittyminen (joining or linking), and liittyvä (related, as a standalone form in non-inflected positions).
