maksun

Maksun is the genitive singular form of the Finnish noun maksua, meaning payment or fee. In Finnish grammar, maksun is used to indicate possession or association, equivalent to “of the payment” or “the payment’s” in English. It is a grammatical form rather than a standalone concept.

In typical usage, maksun appears in phrases that describe attributes of or actions relating to a payment. Examples include maksun määrä (the amount of the payment), maksun viivästyminen (the delay of the payment), maksun ehdot (the terms of the payment), and maksun saaminen (the reception of the payment). The form helps connect the noun maksut to other elements in a sentence by showing possession or relation.

Grammatically, maksun follows the standard pattern for many Finnish nouns ending in -u, where the genitive singular is formed with -un. The plural genitive would be maksujen, used in phrases like maksujen määrä (the amount of payments) or maksujen erä (the payment’s installments/parts).

There is no separate concept or entity officially named “Maksun” beyond its function as a possessive/genitive form of maksu. For broader meaning related to payments, see maksut or maksua, which cover the noun and related forms. In practice, maksun functions as a common inflected form used across legal, financial, and everyday Finnish to express relationships involving payments.
