minennominalisointisuffixistä

minennominalisointisuffixistä is a Finnish suffix used to form abstract nouns from verbs. It is derived from the verb "minemä" which means to go or to walk. The suffix is typically added to the past passive participle of a verb to create a noun that denotes the action or state of that verb. For example, from the verb "kävellä" (to walk), the past passive participle is "kävelty" (walked). Adding the minnominalisointisuffixistä to this results in "kävely" (walking), which is an abstract noun.

The suffix exhibits several allomorphic variations depending on the preceding vowel and consonant of the verb stem. Common forms include -minen, -minen, -minen, and -minen. The choice of allomorph is governed by Finnish vowel harmony rules and consonant assimilation. For instance, verbs ending in a front vowel typically take the -minen variant, while those with back vowels often use -minen. Similarly, consonant clusters may influence the final form of the suffix.

The semantic function of minnominalisointisuffixistä is to nominalize verbal actions, transforming them into concepts that can be discussed or treated as entities. These abstract nouns are frequently used in various grammatical constructions, such as subjects, objects, and complements, allowing for more complex and nuanced expression. The suffix is a productive element in Finnish word formation, contributing significantly to the language's vocabulary of abstract concepts.
