siedettävien

Siedettävien is the genitive plural form of the Finnish adjective siedettävä, which means bearable, tolerable, or acceptable in a given context. The form is used to describe a plural noun in the genitive case, indicating “of the tolerable things/conditions” or similar meaning.

In everyday and formal Finnish, siedettävien appears in phrases that discuss limits, conditions, or options that can be endured or accepted. Common contexts include policy, planning, or evaluation where criteria are described as tolerable rather than ideal. For example, mittauksissa voi puhua siedettävien ehtojen mukaan (according to tolerable terms/conditions), or referring to a set of options: siedettävien vaihtoehtojen valikoima (a range of tolerable alternatives), and a list such as siedettävien asioiden lista (a list of tolerable matters).

Morphologically, siedettävien is the genitive plural form of the adjective siedettävä. It is typically used before a noun in genitive case, e.g., siedettävien asioiden, siedettävien ehtojen. When the noun changes case or number, the adjective form changes accordingly, following standard Finnish agreement rules.

Related concepts include sietäminen (to endure) and the noun siedettävyys, which refers to tolerability or endurance as a quality. These terms are often used in discussions about comfort, usability, environmental limits, or policy that aims to keep conditions within bearable bounds.
