tuottama

Tuottama is a Finnish adjective derived from the verb tuottaa, meaning to produce or yield. It specifies something that has been produced or generated and is commonly used to describe outputs, results, or produced materials in technical, economic, or administrative language.

In usage, tuottama carries a nuance beyond the simple fact of production. It often refers to the quality or character of the produced item rather than the act itself. It is distinguished from tuotettu, the standard passive past participle, by stressing the produced nature or outcome. It can function before a noun as an attributive adjective (tuottama tulos) or as a predicative complement in clauses (Tulos on tuottama).

As an attributive adjective, tuottama agrees in number and case with the noun: sg nominative tuottama tulos; sg genitive tuottaman tuloksen; pl nominative tuottamat tulokset; partitive forms such as tuottamaa tulosta are used in phrases requiring partitives.

Common contexts include phrases like tuottama arvo (produced value), tuottama tieto (produced information), and tuottamat tuotot (the produced yields). The adjective is part of standard Finnish word formation and is considered neutral and widely understood in written Finnish.
