tekemiään

tekemiään is a Finnish word that translates to "their doing" or "what they are doing." It is the third-person plural possessive form of the present participle of the verb 'tehdä', which means "to do" or "to make." The suffix '-ään' indicates possession by a third-person plural subject.

The word tekemiään is often used to refer to the actions or activities that a group of people are currently engaged in. For example, one might say "Kuulin heidän tekemiään" which translates to "I heard what they were doing" or "I heard their doing." It can also be used to describe something that has been made or produced by a group. In this context, it might mean "their creations" or "their handiwork." The specific nuance depends on the context in which the word is used.

This grammatical construction is common in Finnish, where possessive suffixes are attached to nouns, participles, and even some adverbs to indicate ownership or relationship. The flexibility of Finnish morphology allows for a rich expression of possession and action, and tekemiään is a good example of this. It highlights the ongoing nature of an action and the fact that it is being performed by multiple individuals.
