malliesimerkkiin

Malliesimerkkiin is the illative case form of the Finnish compound noun malliesimerkki, meaning “model example” or “template example.” The base noun malliesimerkki combines malli (model, pattern) and esimerkki (example). The illative suffix -in marks direction toward or into something, so malliesimerkkiin translates as “into a model example” or “to a model example” in English.

In Finnish, the illative is one of several cases used to indicate movement or direction. Malliesimerkkiin is used when the sentence requires the illative form. The nominative form is malliesimerkki; the plural illative is malliesimerkkeihin, used when referring to multiple model examples.

Malliesimerkki is used to denote a prototypical or canonical example used for demonstration, instruction, or documentation. The term is common in educational material, methodological write-ups, and technical guidelines, where it may serve as a template or reference example.
