muodostetulta

Muodostetulta is a Finnish grammatical form that functions as an ablative singular. It is derived from the past passive participle muodostettu (formed) and is used with a noun to express origin or source from something that has been formed or constructed. The form reflects Finnish morphology, where adjectives and participles decline for case and number.

In practice, muodostettu serves as an adjective-like participle, and when combined with the ablative suffix -lta/-ltä, the resulting form muodostetulta indicates “from the formed” or “from the formed source.” This construction is common in written Finnish, especially in technical, descriptive, or linguistic contexts where the origin of data, artifacts, or processes is being specified. Examples include phrases such as muodostetulta listalta (from the formed list) or muodostetulta riviltä (from the formed row).

Grammatically, muodostettu is the past passive participle of muodostaa (to form), and muodostetulta is its ablative singular form. As a modifier, it agrees with the noun it describes in number and case. The form is more likely to appear in formal prose, manuals, or scientific writing than in everyday speech.

Related forms include muiden case forms of muodostettu, such as muodostetun (genitive singular) or muodostetulla (inessive singular). The concept also appears in discussions of Finnish participles and adjectives, illustrating how the language combines participial meaning with case marking to convey precise relations of origin or source.
