raidoille

Raidoille is the allative plural form of the Finnish noun raita, typically translated as "to the stripes" or "onto the bands/strips." In Finnish grammar the allative case expresses motion toward a surface or location and is commonly used with verbs of movement, placement and transfer. The allative plural is formed by combining the plural stem with the case ending -ille.

As an example of regular inflection, the nominal paradigm includes raita (nominative singular), raidat (nominative plural), raitoja (partitive plural) and raidoille (allative plural). The form illustrates stem alternation seen in Finnish inflection, where an -i- appears in the plural stem (raito-) before the case ending. In use, raidoille appears in sentences denoting direction or placement, for instance when something is moved onto or applied to multiple stripes or bands.

Raidoille is primarily discussed in contexts of Finnish morphology and language pedagogy as an example of case marking and plural formation. Its practical meaning depends on the sense of raita in a given context (stripe, band, strip), and it functions like other allative plural forms to indicate movement toward or onto multiple instances of the referent.
