ortogonaalisille

Ortogonaalisille refers to the plural dative case of the Finnish word "ortogonaali." In Finnish grammar, "ortogonaali" is derived from the concept of orthogonality, meaning perpendicularity or independence. The dative case, indicated by the "-lle" ending, expresses a directional or recipient relationship. Therefore, "ortogonaalisille" translates to "to the orthogonal ones" or "for the orthogonal ones," depending on the context. It signifies something being directed towards or intended for entities that are mutually perpendicular or independent in some mathematical or conceptual sense.

The term is most commonly encountered in mathematical and scientific contexts. For example, in linear algebra, orthogonal vectors are those that are perpendicular to each other. If one were discussing a set of basis vectors that are all mutually orthogonal, the phrase "ortogonaalisille vektoreille" could be used, meaning "to the orthogonal vectors." Similarly, in signal processing, orthogonal functions are independent of each other in a specific mathematical sense, and the dative form might appear in discussions about applying operations or transformations to these functions. The precise meaning of "ortogonaalisille" is thus dependent on the specific domain where the concept of orthogonality is applied.
