mekanisilla

Mekanisilla is the adessive plural form of the Finnish adjective mekanillinen, meaning mechanical. It is used with plural nouns to describe things that operate with mechanisms or consist of mechanical means, as opposed to electronic or hydraulic systems. The term functions as part of ordinary Finnish grammar rather than as a standalone concept.

Etymology and related terms: mekanillinen derives from the noun mekanismi, meaning mechanism, which in turn traces back to Greek and Latin roots relating to invention and machinery. Related Finnish terms include mekanismi (mechanism), mekaaninen (mechanical, singular), and mekaaniset (mechanical plural). In everyday usage, the adverbial form mechanically is mekanisesti.

Usage and examples: mekani­lisilla can appear in phrases describing equipment or systems that rely on mechanical components. For example, ett devices described as varustettu mekanillisilla osilla (equipped with mechanical parts) or kone, joka toimii mekanillisilla järjestelmillä (a machine that operates with mechanical systems). In contrast, elektroniset or sähköiset terms may be used to indicate electronic or electrical alternatives. The word is primarily a grammatical form used in technical or descriptive Finnish.

Notes and context: mekani­saillinen family of words is common in engineering, manufacturing, and applied sciences, where distinctions between mechanical and electronic methods arise. There is no separate, widely recognized concept or organization named “Mekanisilla” as a proper noun; the term functions within standard Finnish morphology to describe mechanical aspects of objects or processes.
