tionsmæssige

Tionsmæssige is a Danish adjectival form that is not widely attested in standard dictionaries. In linguistic discussions, it is sometimes described as a hypothetical or highly specialized adjective created by adding the suffix -mæssig to a stem that represents the concept of -tion or a nominalized -tion form. The idea is to express a relation to or characteristic of -tion words, though the exact semantic scope depends on the surrounding context.

In Danish, the suffix -mæssig is productive and forms adjectives that indicate relation or appropriateness to the stem. Common examples (for illustration) include funktionmæssig (related to function) and miljømæssig (environmentally related). The meaning of tionsmæssige, if used, would similarly hinge on the implied stem and the domain it designates. The construction belongs to a broader class of -mæssige adjectives that appear in formal or technical language.

Usage of tionsmæssige is typically confined to analytical or theoretical writing, where authors discuss categories, properties, or relations involving nominalizations—especially those ending in -tion—or other abstract concepts. It is not a part of ordinary, everyday Danish prose, and in published work it usually serves as an illustrative or exploratory form rather than a standard lexical item.
