muokkautuu

Muokkautuu is a Finnish verb meaning “to be modified” or “to undergo modification.” It represents the middle/ passive form of muokata (to edit, modify) and is formed with the suffix -utua. The infinitive is muokkautua; present tense is muokkautuu; past tense is muokkautui. The word describes a state or process in which the subject itself changes as a result of editing, adjustment, or adaptation, rather than an agent performing the change.

Usage and context: The term is common in digital and editorial contexts, where content, layouts, data, or interfaces adjust to edits, user actions, or automated rules. It is typically used to describe systems or documents that are dynamically altered rather than manually rewritten in each instance. For example, in discussions about wikis, content management systems, or adaptive interfaces, one might speak of how the page or data muokkautuu over time.

Related terms: The noun muokkaus refers to modification or editing—the act of changing something. muokkaaminen denotes the process of editing. The noun muokkautuminen can be used to describe the process of undergoing modification. muokkautua contrasts with muokata, which denotes an active performing of edits.
