näyttäkää

Näyttäkää is the second-person plural imperative form of the Finnish verb näyttää, meaning to show or to appear. It is used to instruct or request a group of people to present something, demonstrate a point, or reveal information. The form is common in contexts such as meetings, classrooms, performances, and demonstrations, but can occur in any situation where several people are addressed.

Grammar and usage: Näyttäkää is an imperative mood form addressed to more than one person. It is derived from näyttää and is the standard 2nd-person plural imperative in Finnish. The object of the verb typically follows, in the appropriate case (for example, Näyttäkää minulle todisteet — Show me the evidence). The sense covers both literal showing and broader presenting or displaying, including material, results, or demonstrations.

Examples: Näyttäkää minulle todisteet. Näyttäkää, mitä olette tehneet. Näyttäkää video näytöllä. In spoken and written Finnish, this form is common when directing a group to present or reveal something.
