sisäänkäännettäviksi

Sisäänkäännettäviksi is a Finnish grammatical term referring to words that can be inflected with the translative case. The translative case, often translated as "into" or "as," indicates a transformation, change of state, or result. For example, the noun "lapsi" (child) can be put into the translative case as "lapseksi" (as a child or into a child). This grammatical feature is not present in all Finnish nouns, and the specific form of the translative ending can vary depending on the noun's declension class and phonological rules of Finnish.

The translative case is used in various contexts. It can express becoming something, such as "hänestä tuli opettaja" (he/she became a teacher). It can also denote a change of state, like "veteen muuttui jääksi" (the water turned into ice). Furthermore, the translative can indicate the outcome of an action or the role someone takes on. Understanding which words are sisäänkäännettäviksi is crucial for correct Finnish grammar and expressing nuanced meanings related to change and transformation. The term itself is the plural partitive form of the adjective "sisäänkäännettävä," meaning "translatable" or "inflectable into the translative case."
