neljänneksellä

Neljänneksellä is a Finnish word that translates to "at a quarter" or "in a quarter." It is commonly used in contexts related to time. For example, "kello on neljänneksellä kolme" means "the clock is at a quarter past three" or "it is a quarter past three." Similarly, "se tapahtuu neljänneksellä yli puolen vuoden päästä" would mean "it will happen a quarter of a year from now." The word "neljännes" itself means "quarter" or "one-fourth." Therefore, "neljänneksellä" indicates a point or duration that is one-fourth of a larger whole, most often referring to an hour or a year. It can also be used in other measurements, such as "neljänneksellä litraa" meaning "a quarter of a liter," though this usage is less common than temporal references. The word is a partitive case of "neljännes," indicating a part of something.
