mittauksiksi

Mittauksiksi is a Finnish grammatical form used to indicate transformation into or designation as measurements. It is the translative plural form derived from mittaus, meaning measurement. In Finnish, the translative case often expresses becoming, turning into, or being regarded as something, and mittauksiksi is commonly used in technical and scientific writing to frame data or values as measurements.

The term is typically used when describing data preparation, analysis, or presentation where values are treated as measurement results. For example, kerätyt arvot voidaan esittää mittauksiksi translates to “the collected values can be presented as measurements.” Another common pattern is that results are interpreted or classified as measurements, such as tulokset tulkittiin mittauksiksi, meaning “the results were interpreted as measurements.” The form may also appear in sentences about converting or mapping data into measurement units or categories.

In Finnish, mittauksiksi is formed by adding the translative suffix -ksi to mittaus (and in plural contexts may appear as mittauksiksi). It is not a standalone concept but a grammatical expression used to describe the role or status of data, values, or results as measurements within a given analysis or reporting framework.
