löydettämällä

The Finnish word "löydettämällä" is the adessive case of the third infinitive of the verb "löytää" (to find). It translates to phrases like "by finding," "through finding," or "when finding." This grammatical form is used to indicate the means or manner by which something is achieved or occurs.

For example, in a sentence like "Tieto selvisi löydettämällä oikeat lähteet" (The information became clear by finding the right sources), "löydettämällä" specifies the method through which the information was revealed. It implies an active process of searching and discovery as the agent of the outcome. The adessive case in Finnish often conveys a sense of accompaniment or instrumentality, and in this infinitive form, it highlights the action of finding as the tool or pathway. This construction is common in both spoken and written Finnish when discussing processes that involve discovery or the acquisition of knowledge through a finding.
