tavalliselle

Tavalliselle is the allative singular form of the Finnish adjective tavallinen, meaning ordinary or common. In Finnish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in case, so when the noun is in the allative case (marked with -lle), the adjective also takes the allative ending, yielding tavalliselle.

The form is used to indicate the target or recipient of an action, or to describe something as intended for or directed toward ordinary people. It is common in marketing, public discourse, and everyday language to emphasize accessibility or relatability.

Examples of usage include:

- Tuote on suunnattu tavalliselle ihmiselle. (The product is aimed at the ordinary person.)

- Tavalliselle työmatkustajalle suunniteltu sovellus. (An app designed for the average commuter.)

Tavalliselle is not a standalone concept or proper noun; rather, it is a grammatical form derived from tavallinen used in phrases where the noun it modifies is in the allative case. Its meaning relies on the context to convey targeting toward ordinary audiences.
