pakkauksiksi

Pakkauksiksi is a Finnish word form, the translative plural of the noun pakkaus ("package" or "packaging"), literally meaning "into packages" or "as packages." It is an inflected case form used to express change of state, transformation, designation, or grouping into packages.

Etymology and grammar: pakkauksiksi derives from the stem pakkaus (from the verb pakata, "to pack") with the translative plural suffix -ksi and plural marker -i-. The form indicates that something becomes or is treated as packages, or that items are being put into packages. In Finnish grammar the translative case frequently answers the question "miksi?" ("into what?"/"as what?") and can apply to singular or plural outcomes; pakkauksiksi is specifically plural.

Usage and examples: the form appears in everyday contexts such as instructions, logistics, and recycling. Example sentences: "Tavarat pakataan pakkauksiksi" (The goods are packed into packages) and "Tuotteet lajitellaan pakkauksiksi ennen kuljetusta" (Products are sorted into packages before shipping). It can also be used metaphorically to describe categorization or treatment as a group.

Pronunciation is approximately [ˈpɑkːɑuksiksi]. As an inflected form rather than a lemma, pakkauksiksi is normally discussed in grammatical descriptions, dictionaries under the headword pakkaus, and in textual contexts where packing or grouping is described.
