sulattajista

Sulattajista is the plural ablative form of the Finnish noun sulattaja, meaning a smelter or melter—someone who melts metal, typically in a foundry or metallurgical setting. The noun sulattaja is formed from sula (melt) plus the agent suffix -taja. Sulattajista, as the ablative plural, means “from the smelters” or “of the smelters” and is used to indicate origin or source from multiple such workers or facilities.

Usage and meaning: Sulattajista is a grammatical form rather than a separate concept. In modern Finnish, the job title for a person who melts metal is sulattaja or simply foundry worker. Sulattajista would appear in sentences that discuss information, materials, or statements originating from several smelters or from multiple facilities. Example (Finnish): “Tutkimus perustui sulattajista saatuun aineistoon.” Translation: “The study was based on data obtained from the smelters.”

Industrial and historical context: Smelting has been central to Finland’s metal industries, with smelters operating in various regions. The term sulattajista is more likely found in technical, academic, or historical texts when referencing sources or data from multiple smelters, rather than as a job title.
