ollapitääkoettaa

ollapitääkoettaa is a Finnish verb phrase. It is composed of the infinitive form of the verb "olla" (to be) and the infinitive form of the verb "pitää" (to keep, to have to, to like) followed by the past participle of the verb "koettaa" (to try, to attempt). The literal translation is "to be have to tried".

In Finnish grammar, this construction is used to express an obligation or necessity to have attempted something in the past. It signifies that a past action or situation required an attempt, even if the outcome is not specified. The phrase conveys a sense of duty or requirement that was present at a past time.

For example, one might say "hänen piti olla koettaa" which translates to "he had to have tried". This implies that at some point in the past, there was a situation where attempting something was a necessary course of action for him. The phrase does not necessarily imply success in the attempt, only the obligation to have made it. The nuances can vary depending on the context and the specific past tense employed.
