luovuttaviin

Luovuttaviin is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb luovuttaa, meaning to hand over or surrender. In Finnish grammar, luovuttaviin is the illative plural form of the present active participle luovuttava and is used as an attributive modifier describing items, documents, or subjects that are to be handed over to someone. The form is most commonly seen in formal or legal language where precise reference to recipients or destinations of a handover is required.

The function of luovuttaviin is to specify the objects or parties involved in a handover in a way that indicates future action or obligation. It often appears in regulatory, contractual, or administrative contexts, where the wording must clearly designate what will be handed over and to whom. The meaning is roughly “to the ones to be handed over” or “to be handed over to.” The exact interpretation depends on the surrounding sentence and the case selected by the governing clause.

Etymology and construction: the form is built from the stem luovutt- of luovuttaa, combined with the active participle luovuttava and inflected to the illative plural ending -iin, yielding luovuttaviin. This construction allows the speaker to refer to multiple recipients or destinations in a compact, formal way.
