museoilla

Museoilla is a Finnish word that functions as the plural adessive form of museo, meaning “at the museums.” It is used to indicate location or situation related to more than one museum, roughly translating to “at the museums” in English. In Finnish sentences, it commonly appears where the location of objects, events, or activities is described in the plural.

Linguistic background and form: The word is built from the noun museo (museum) plus the plural adessive suffix -illa (or -illä after vowel harmony). The adessive case marks location, often translated as “at” or “on” in English. Museoilla contrasts with related forms such as museoissa (inessive singular “in the museum”) and museoilla is used for multiple museums. Other related forms include museoiden (genitive plural) and museoille (allative/plural indicating toward).

Usage: Museoilla is primarily a grammatical form used in Finnish texts to discuss what exists or occurs at multiple museums, such as collections, exhibitions, or activities. It is not typically used as a proper noun or brand name. In descriptive or encyclopedic writing about museums, museoilla may appear when describing locations, events, or comparative statements involving several institutions.
