tarjoaisitte

Tarjoaisitte is the second-person plural conditional form of the Finnish verb tarjota, meaning “to offer.” It denotes a hypothetical or polite offer directed at two or more people and is a member of the Finnish conditional mood.

In practice, tarjoaisitte is used to express what you would offer in a given situation, often in questions or suggestions. For example, Tarjoaisitteko kahvia? translates to “Would you offer coffee?” and can be used as a courteous request. The form can also appear in conditional clauses such as Jos tarjoaisitte minulle vettä, voisin jatkaa keskustelua, meaning “If you would offer me some water, I could continue the conversation.”

Formation and related forms: The conditional mood is formed with the -isi- suffix plus personal endings. For tarjota, the second-person plural conditional is tarjoaisitte. Related forms include tarjoaisin (I would offer), tarjoaisit (you would offer), tarjoaisi (he/she would offer), tarjoaisimme (we would offer), and tarjoaisivat (they would offer).

Usage notes: The form expresses hypothetical or polite intent rather than a definite past action. It is commonly used in direct address to multiple listeners or in indirect speech reporting what someone would offer in a given scenario. Distinguishing the conditional tarjoaisitte from the imperfect indicative past form tarjoitte (you offered) is important for clear mood and time reference in Finnish.
