omistajuudella

Omistajuudella is the adessive form of the Finnish noun omistajuus, which means ownership or title. The expression describes the state or condition of an asset being owned by a person or entity, rather than being leased, borrowed, or otherwise in someone’s possession. In formal contexts, omistajuudella is used to indicate who holds the ownership rights to property, securities, or other rights.

Etymology and grammar: omistajuus derives from the verb omistaa (to own) and the noun omistus (possession, ownership). The suffix -lla is an adessive marker in Finnish, signaling a state or attribute related to the subject. Thus omistajuudella translates roughly to “with ownership” or “under ownership.”

Usage and context: The term appears in legal, financial, and administrative texts to emphasize ownership status. For example, a document might refer to a kiinteistö omistajuudella or to osakkeet omistajuudella, meaning the property or shares are owned by a specific person or organization. Omistajuudella is typically contrasted with other forms of control, such as hallinta (possession or control without ownership) or vuokraaminen (leasing).

Nuances and related terms: While omistus and omistusoikeus focus on possession and the legal right of ownership, omistajuus highlights the ownership status itself. In housing discourse, omistusasaminen (owner-occupied housing) denotes living in a dwelling one owns, illustrating how omistajuudella relates to broader concepts of ownership and rights within Finnish property law and economy.
