tutkimista

Tutkimista is a Finnish noun that refers to the act or process of examining, investigating, or studying. It is derived from the verb tutkia (to investigate) and is closely related to tutkimus (research) and tutkiminen (the act of investigating). The form tutkimista is used in various grammatical contexts—most commonly in the partitive case—as the object or a non-specified amount of investigation.

The term is used across domains such as science and academia, medicine, law enforcement, journalism, and industry. In science and academia, tutkimista describes the systematic gathering and analysis of data. In legal or investigative journalism contexts, it denotes the process of examining facts or evidence. In clinical settings, tutkimista refers to the examination of patients or diagnostic investigations; in quality assurance, it can refer to inspection and testing procedures.

Related terms include tutkimus, the concept of research or study; tutkiminen, the act of investigating; tutkimusprosessi, the research process; and tutkimustulos, which means research results. Finnish speakers may use phrases such as tutkimista varten (for the purpose of investigation) and tutkimista koskevat toimenpiteet (measures concerning the investigation). The term fits within the broader Finnish nominalization pattern, where verbs are turned into nouns to express actions or processes.
