staattiseksi

Staattiseksi is a Finnish translative form of the adjective staattinen, used to express a change of state toward a static or unchanging condition. In technical, scientific, and everyday language, staattiseksi describes something that has become or been made static, i.e., no longer varies or moves dynamically.

Grammatically, staattiseksi is formed by adding the translative suffix -ksi to staattinen. It is used with verbs that denote becoming or making, such as muuttaa, tehdä, or asettaa. In a sentence, it often functions as a predicative complement, for example with verbs like muuttua or muutettu: tila muuttui staattiseksi, järjestelmä muutettiin staattiseksi.

Usage notes and nuances: staattiseksi implies a qualitative change to a stable, unchanging state. It is common in discussions of physical systems (electrical circuits, mechanical setups), computing (static configurations), and abstract states (policies or conditions that do not evolve). The focus is on the cessation of dynamic change, rather than mere absence of motion.

Examples:

- Tila muuttui staattiseksi. (The state became static.)

- Prosessi on muutettu staattiseksi. (The process has been made static.)

- Järjestelmä voidaan asettaa staattiseksi, jolloin se ei enää reagoikaan ulkoisiin signaaleihin. (The system can be set to static, so it no longer responds to external signals.)
