monistetaan

Monistetaan is a Finnish verb form meaning “is/are being duplicated” or “will be duplicated.” It is the passive present form of the verb monistaa, which means to duplicate, reproduce, or copy. The noun for the act is monistus and the process can also be referred to as monistaminen.

The term is common in administrative, archival, printing, and information-technology contexts, where creating copies of documents, data, or media is routine. It can refer to physical copies or digital duplicates. Examples include: “Dokumentit monistetaan ennen jakelua” (The documents are duplicated before distribution) and “Varmuuskopiot monistetaan säännöllisesti” (Backups are duplicated regularly). In everyday language, kopiointi or kopioida are sometimes used as synonyms, but monistaminen emphasizes formal duplication or reproduction.

Grammatically, monistetaan is the passive present tense form and does not specify a subject; the subject is whatever is being duplicated. Related linguistic forms include monistus (the act of duplication) and monistaminen (the process of duplicating). The construction is widely understood in official or technical texts and tends to appear in procedures, instructions, and workflow descriptions.
