tuetuilla

Tuetuilla is a Finnish adjective form meaning “supported,” functioning as the plural adessive form of the past participle tuettu. It is used to describe nouns in a state of receiving support, whether that support is physical, structural, or financial. In Finnish grammar, tuetuilla appears when the modified noun is plural and the speaker wants to indicate the location or state of those items being supported.

Etymology and form: the word derives from the verb tukea, “to support.” The passive past participle tuettu carries the core meaning “supported,” and by adding the plural adessive suffix -lla/-llä, it becomes tuetuilla, used with plural nouns to express “on/at/interacting with something that is supported.” For example, tuetuilla ohjelmilla refers to programs that receive support, and tuetuilla alustoilla refers to platforms that are supported.

Usage notes: tuetuilla is typically found in descriptions of subsidies, accessibility measures, or physical support structures. It can describe items funded or assisted by government programs, organizations, or other sponsors, as well as objects that are physically stabilized or reinforced. It is not a proper noun or a name; rather, it is a standard inflected form of a common Finnish adjective.

Examples:

- tuetuilla ohjelmilla rahoitetut hankkeet (projects financed with support)

- tuetuilla alustoilla toimivat palvelut (services operating on supported platforms)
