säänneltyiksi

säänneltyiksi is the illative plural form of the Finnish word säännelty. In Finnish grammar, the illative case indicates movement into or within something, and the plural form signifies that the action applies to multiple entities. Therefore, "säänneltyiksi" translates to "into or among [things that are] regulated" or "having become regulated" in a plural context.

The root word, säännelty, is the past passive participle of the verb säännellä, which means "to regulate," "to control," or "to govern." When used in the illative plural, it describes a state or process of being brought under regulation or control, affecting multiple subjects or objects. For instance, one might say that certain industries have become säänneltyiksi, implying they have been subjected to new rules or oversight.

The grammatical structure highlights a transition or a resulting state. It is not merely describing something as regulated, but rather the process or outcome of becoming regulated. This distinction is important in understanding the nuance of Finnish case usage. The word itself, without further context, denotes a plural entity or entities that have undergone or are undergoing a process of regulation.
