miellyttävistä

Miellyttävistä is the elative plural form of the Finnish adjective miellyttävä, meaning pleasant or agreeable. In Finnish, adjectives decline to agree with the nouns they describe, and miellyttävistä appears when the corresponding noun is plural and in the elative case. The elative typically conveys source, origin, or topic, and in practice mipas can translate as “from/of/about pleasant …” depending on the verb and construction.

Grammatical use and forms

Miellyttävä is used for describing people, things, or situations that are pleasant. The elative plural form miellyttävistä attaches to plural nouns in elative, for example when talking about pleasant things or about pleasant people in contexts such as discussion, reporting, or description. Other related forms include miellyttävä (singular nominative), miellyttävät (plural nominative), miellyttävien (plural genitive), and miellyttävissä (plural inessive), among others. Finnish adjectives therefore mirror noun inflection and adapt to case, number, and number of the noun they modify.

Examples

- Puhuttiin miellyttävistä asioista. (There was talk about pleasant things.)

- Miellyttävistä ihmisistä on usein puhuttu. (There has often been talk about pleasant people.)

- Keskustelussa käsiteltiin miellyttävistä puolista. (The discussion dealt with the pleasant aspects.)

Notes

Miellyttävistä conveys a neutral to positive evaluation of the described items. Its use is purely grammatical and depends on the noun’s case and number; it does not carry a separate lexical meaning beyond “pleasant/agreeable” as described by the head noun.
