sekoittimilla

Sekoittimilla is the Finnish instrumental/adessive plural form of the noun sekoitin, meaning mixer or agitator. It is used to indicate the means or instrument by which an action is performed, roughly translating to “with mixers.” The form can refer to several devices or to a general method that involves mixing.

Common contexts include cooking, science, and industry, where the phrase denotes the use of mechanical mixing. In cooking, it is found in sentences such as “Kakun taikina sekoitetaan sekoittimilla.” In laboratory or production settings, it may appear as “Ruoat valmistetaan sekoittimilla” to emphasize the use of mixers as the means of mixing.

Grammatically, sekoittimilla is the adessive plural of sekoitin and expresses means or instrument rather than the subject of the sentence. It contrasts with sekoittimet, the plural form referring to the devices themselves, and with other inflected forms such as sekoittimia (partitive/genitive). The root sekoitin derives from the verb sekoittaa, meaning to mix or blend.

See also: sekoitin, sekoittimet, sekoittaminen. The term illustrates Finnish usage of the adessive case to indicate the instrument or means by which an action is performed, and it is commonly encountered in recipes, manuals, and technical descriptions.
