sisälti

sisälti is a Finnish word that translates to "contained," "included," or "comprised" in English. It is the past tense of the verb sisältää, which means "to contain" or "to include." The word is commonly used in various contexts to describe the composition or contents of something.

For example, in a sentence like "Paketti sisälti kirjan ja kynän" (The package contained a book and a pen), sisälti clearly indicates that these items were part of the package's contents. It can also be used more abstractly, such as "Raportti sisälti tärkeitä tietoja" (The report contained important information), signifying that the information was present within the report.

The grammatical form of sisälti is the third-person singular past tense. When referring to plural subjects or different tenses, other forms of sisältää are used. The word is a fundamental part of the Finnish vocabulary, essential for expressing possession, inclusion, and composition in past events or states. Its versatility allows it to be applied to both physical objects and abstract concepts, making it a frequently encountered term in Finnish discourse.
