suhteille

Suhteille is a Finnish word form that functions as the plural allative case of the noun suhde, meaning relationship or relation. In Finnish, the allative case marks direction toward or application to someone or something, and in the plural it can refer to multiple relationships. Therefore, suhteille is used when talking about what applies to or is directed at several relationships rather than a single one.

Morphology and usage notes: The base noun is suhde. To form the plural allative, the stem takes the suffix -ille, producing suhteille. The singular allative is suhteelle, while other forms of the word follow standard Finnish case patterns (for example, suhteen in the genitive, suhdetta in the partitive). Suhteille often appears in formal or written Finnish, such as administrative, sociological, or business texts, where relationships between entities—such as organizations, stakeholders, or variables—are treated as the object of an action, policy, or analysis.

Context and meaning: In practice, suhteille indicates that something is intended for, directed at, or applied to multiple relationships. It is commonly used in discussions of governance, stakeholder relations, or research that examines interactions between different actors. The term helps distinguish actions or provisions that affect several relations from those aimed at a single relationship.
