muodostumme

Muodostumme is the first-person plural present indicative form of the Finnish verb muodostua. It translates roughly as "we form" or "we become formed," depending on the context. The form is used when the subject is “me” and the clause describes a process of coming into being, development, or consolidation within a group, structure, or phenomenon.

Grammatically, the suffix -mme marks the 1st person plural subject. The verb muodostoitu- is intransitive, meaning it does not take a direct object. It often expresses a process rather than a deliberate action, for example when a group evolves into a new unit. An illustrative usage is Me muodostumme tiimiksi, meaning "We are forming into a team" or "We become a team." In other contexts, muodostua can describe natural emergence or growth within a group or system, such as a community, alliance, or organizational structure.

Nuance and usage notes: muodostua emphasizes gradual change and the development of coherence within the subject. If the speaker wants to stress deliberate creation or construction of something by the group, other verbs such as muodostaa (to form, to create) or tehdä (to make) are often more appropriate. For the noun form, related concepts include muodostuminen (formation, emergence) and muodostus (the act or result of forming). The base verb muodosta- also appears in other inflected forms for different subjects and tenses.
