resepteissä

Resepteissä is the inessive plural form of resepti, meaning "in recipes" in Finnish. It marks location or context within multiple recipes and is commonly found in cooking texts, culinary discussions, and linguistic descriptions. The form is used when referring to content that appears inside more than one recipe rather than a single one.

Grammatical notes: The base word is resepti; the plural is reseptit. To form the inessive plural, the ending -ssä is added to the plural: resepteissä. The singular inessive is reseptissä. This form helps indicate where certain information, such as measurements or steps, is located—in several recipes.

Etymology: Resepti is a Finnish loanword, related to the Swedish resept and ultimately deriving from the Latin recipe. The term entered Finnish culinary language through contact with Swedish, reflecting the broader borrowing patterns in kitchen vocabulary. The plural and case forms follow standard Finnish inflection rules for nouns of foreign origin that became common in everyday usage.

Usage considerations: Resepteissä appears most often in discussions of collections, cookbooks, or online recipe databases where one compares multiple recipes. It is a neutral, descriptive term suitable for encyclopedic and instructional contexts. In contrast to reseptissä (singular inessive), resepteissä unites several recipes under a common discussion or analysis.
