televosiosta

Televosiosta is not a standard Finnish word. It is generally considered a misspelling or nonstandard variant of the elative form televisiosta, which means “from television.” The term does not appear in Finnish dictionaries as a recognized lemma.

The standard base word is televisio, meaning television. The elative suffix -sta/-stä attaches to the stem to produce televisiosta, used to denote origin, source, or association with television. The word television itself is a loanword from English, commonly used in Finnish with the same meaning.

In normal usage, televisiosta appears in contexts such as “tiedot televisiosta” (information from television) or “ohjelmista televisiosta riippuen” (depending on programs on television). The form televiosiosta would be considered incorrect in formal writing and standard language guides; it may occur only as a typographical error or in highly informal text.

Linguists sometimes discuss televosiosta as an example of how foreign loanwords influence inflection in Finnish, including common misspellings among learners or in rapid, casual writing. Correcting to televisiosta helps preserve standard inflection patterns and clarity.
