löytymällä

Löytymällä is a Finnish word that functions as an adverbial form of the verb löytää, which means "to find" or "to discover." In essence, löytymällä describes the manner or circumstance in which something is found or comes to be found. It can be translated into English as "by being found," "through discovery," or "upon finding."

The word is typically used to convey that an object, information, or a state of being was not actively sought but rather came to light through some passive or coincidental process. For instance, a lost item might be found löytymällä, implying it was discovered by chance rather than through a dedicated search effort. Similarly, a solution to a problem could be found löytymällä, suggesting it emerged unexpectedly.

Grammatically, löytymällä is the adessive case of the third infinitive of löytää, which is löytyminen (the act of being found). The adessive case often indicates how something is done or by what means. Therefore, löytymällä refers to the process or the state of being found as the means by which something else occurs or is understood. It emphasizes the passive aspect of discovery.
