tilattua

Tilattua is a Finnish term that functions as the partitive singular form of the past passive participle tilattu, used to describe something that has been ordered. The verb tilata means to order or to place an order, and the participle tilattu acts like an adjective modifying a noun. In sentences, tilattua appears when the noun it modifies is in the partitive case or in constructions that require partitive harmony.

In practice, tilattua is common in procurement, logistics, retail, and hospitality contexts to refer to goods or services that have been ordered but may not yet be delivered. For example: “Tilattua ruokaa ei ole vielä toimitettu,” meaning the ordered food has not yet been delivered; and “Tilattua tavaraa odotetaan,” meaning ordered goods are awaited. The form also combines with plural nouns, as in “tilattuja tuotteita,” meaning ordered products.

Grammatical note: tilattua is the partitive singular form of tilattu. Other related forms include tilattu (nominative), tilatun (genitive singular), and tilattuja (partitive or plural), which broaden the adjective’s agreement with different noun endings. In business writing, tilattua is useful for distinguishing items that have been requested by customers from those that are in stock or already delivered.

Summary: tilattua denotes items that have been ordered and are discussed in contexts where the partitive case is required, reflecting the state of an order in Finnish procurement and service communication.
