rajoittaviin

Rajoittaviin is a Finnish inflected form of the adjective rajoittava, which means restrictive or imposing limits. In Finnish grammar, rajoittava describes something that constrains or narrows. Rajoittaviin is the form used before a plural noun in a grammatical case such as the illative, roughly translating to “to the restrictive …” or “to the restrictive provisions/terms.”

The term is most commonly encountered in formal, legal, or regulatory language, where it qualifies provisions, terms, or conditions as being restrictive. Because it is a case-based inflection of an adjective, rajoittaviin appears only when the modified noun is plural and in the appropriate case in the sentence.

Etymology and related forms: rajoittava derives from the verb rajoittaa, meaning to restrict. Related forms include rajoittava (restrictive, present participle), rajoittavat (they restrict), and raajoittavien (genitive plural). Other illative or partitive forms of the same base appear in different syntactic contexts, such as rajoittavan, rajoittavaa, or rajoittaviin, depending on number and case.

Notes: Rajoittaviin is a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical item. Its exact use depends on the noun it modifies and its case, and it is one of several inflected variants of rajoittava used to express the sense of restriction in Finnish prose, policy text, or legal language.
