muodostatte

Muodostatte is a Finnish finite verb form: the second-person plural present indicative of the verb muodostaa, meaning to form or to compose. In English it corresponds to “you form” or “you are forming.” It is used when addressing more than one person or when the subject is implicitly te.

Morphology and usage notes:

Muodostatte is formed by taking the verb stem muodosta- and adding the second-person plural present ending -tte. It is not the imperative; the second-person plural imperative is muodostakaa. The corresponding past tense form is muodostitte (you formed / you have formed), and other forms follow standard Finnish conjugation patterns for -aa/-ä verbs.

Examples:

- Te muodostatte lauseen annettujen sanojen avulla. (You form a sentence using the given words.)

- Te muodostatte uuden tilan lopputulokseksi, kun yhdistätte nämä osat. (You are forming a new state/solution by combining these parts.)

These examples illustrate how the form is used with a plural “you” subject, typically in instructional, descriptive, or explanatory contexts.

Etymology and related forms:

Muodostaa stems from muodosta- with the noun muoto meaning form or shape; related words include muoto, muotoilu, muotostus and muotoutua, reflecting the broader concept of forming, shaping, or creating.
