ohjeellisiin

Ohjeellisiin is the illative plural form of the Finnish adjective ohjeellinen, meaning “instructional” or “guideline-related.” It is used to refer to guideline- or instruction-related matters when the noun it modifies is plural and in the illative case, indicating direction toward or into those items. The form is common in formal Finnish, such as administrative, educational, and policy texts.

Grammar notes: The base form is ohjeellinen. The plural nominative is ohjeelliset, and the illative plural is ohjeellisiin. The form is created by taking the stem ohjeell- and adding the illative plural suffix -isiin. It can modify nouns like asiakirjoihin, käytäntöihin, ohjeisiin, or periaatteisiin, among others.

Examples include: “ohjeellisiin asiakirjoihin viitattiin” (references to guideline-related documents) and “ohjeellisiin käytäntöihin perustuva koulutus” (training based on guideline-related practices). It can also appear in phrases like “ohjeellisiin periaatteisiin” to denote alignment with guideline-based principles.

Etymology: It derives from ohje (instruction, guideline) plus the adjective-forming suffix -ellinen, with the plural illative ending -isiin.
