suoritusosuuksin

Suoritusosuuksin is a Finnish adverbial form derived from the noun suoritusosuus (performance share or portion). It literally means “with/by a portion of the performance” and is used to indicate that a result, assessment, or outcome is based on how much of a task or assignment was completed relative to the whole. The word combines suoritus (performance) with osuus (share, part) and the adverbial suffix –in.

In the context of Finnish education, suoritusosuuksin often appears in official documents, evaluation guidelines, and teachers’ reports. For example, a school might state “Oppilas sai arvosanan suoritusosuuksin 70 %” to indicate that the student’s grade was calculated based on 70 % of the required work. It is also used in research papers that analyze learning outcomes, where authors write that results were obtained “suoritusosuuksin annetun tehtävän osan perusteella.”

Outside the educational setting, the term can be found in business or legal documents when performance metrics are expressed as a proportion of a target. Because it is a compound form specific to Finnish, it is rarely translated directly; instead, meanings are conveyed through phrases such as “based on the portion of work completed.”

The usage of suoritusosuuksin reflects the Finnish linguistic tendency to form adverbial compounds that precisely describe the basis or means of an action. It is a standard term in Finnish grammar references, listed in language corpora, and appears in dictionaries under the term suoritusosuus with notes on its adverbial use.
