määrätylle

määrätylle is a Finnish word that functions as the allative plural of the word "määrätty". "Määrätty" itself is the past passive participle of the verb "määrätä", which means to determine, appoint, or decree. Therefore, "määrätylle" translates to "to the determined ones" or "to the appointed ones" or "to the decreed ones" in English.

The allative case in Finnish indicates movement towards or destination. When used in the plural, "määrätylle" signifies that the action or state being described is directed towards a group of entities that have been previously determined, appointed, or decreed.

For example, in a sentence like "Kaikki lahjat jaettiin määrätylle ryhmälle" (All gifts were distributed to the determined group), "määrätylle" specifies that the recipients of the gifts were not just any group, but a specific one that had been previously identified or chosen.

The context in which "määrätylle" appears is crucial for understanding its precise meaning. It can be used in legal, administrative, or even everyday contexts where a specific group or set of individuals has been designated for a particular purpose or outcome.
