pusseihin

Pusseihin is the illative plural form of the Finnish noun pussi, meaning purses or bags. The illative case marks direction toward something, commonly translated as "into" or "to." In the plural, the form pusseihin is used with multiple bags rather than a single bag.

Usage and notes:

Pusseihin is used when describing putting items into several bags or directing movement toward multiple containers. It contrasts with the singular illative form pussiin (into a bag). The corresponding nominative plural is pussit (bags), and the illative plural pattern often involves inserting an -eih- sequence before the ending -n, yielding pusseihin in standard usage.

Examples:

Laitoin rahani pusseihin. (I put my money into the bags.)

Hän keräsi kolikoita pusseihin ennen kassalle menoa. (He gathered coins into the bags before going to the checkout.)

Use of pusseihin emphasizes multiple bags as the destination rather than just one.
