säilyisivätkin

säilyisivätkin is a Finnish word that functions as a conditional form of the verb säilyä, meaning "to remain," "to be preserved," or "to survive." Specifically, it is the third-person plural conditional form, indicating that "they would remain," "they would be preserved," or "they would survive." The "-kin" suffix is an enclitic particle in Finnish that adds emphasis or indicates something unexpected or additional. Therefore, "säilyisivätkin" conveys a sense of "they would *also* remain," "they would remain *even then*," or "they would *indeed* remain," suggesting a condition or a concession.

This grammatical structure is often used in hypothetical situations. For example, one might say "Jos emme olisi tehneet mitään, kaikki säilyisivätkin ehjinä" which translates to "If we hadn't done anything, everything would *indeed* have remained intact." The particle "-kin" here implies a surprising or noteworthy outcome, perhaps contrasting with an expected outcome of damage or loss. The word highlights the conditional nature of an event and adds a layer of emphasis to the continuation or preservation under certain circumstances. It is a nuanced expression that requires understanding both the verb's meaning and the function of the enclitic particle.
