mallikohtaisia

Mallikohtaisia is a Finnish adjective meaning model-specific. It is used to describe features, settings, documents, or components that apply to a specific model of a product, device, or system, as opposed to generic or cross-model items. The term is common in technical and commercial Finnish writing.

Grammar and usage notes: mallikohtainen is the singular form meaning “model-specific.” The word is formed from malli (model) and kohta (root related to kohtainen, meaning pertaining to). In plural, when modifying plural nouns in partitive, the form becomes mallikohtaisia. For example: mallikohtaisia asetuksia, mallikohtaisia ohjeita, mallikohtaisia päivityksiä.

Typical contexts and examples: The term frequently appears in product documentation, manuals, software release notes, engineering specifications, and procurement texts. It signals that the described item or instruction is tailored to a particular model rather than being universal across models. Examples include model-specific settings (mallikohtaisia asetuksia), model-specific instructions (mallikohtaisia ohjeita), and model-specific updates (mallikohtaisia päivityksiä).

Relationship to related terms: Mallikohtaisia is the plural partitive form; the corresponding singular nominative is mallikohtainen. The concept contrasts with cross-model or generic descriptions, which would not specify a particular model. In English, the equivalent term is model-specific.
