täydellistetään

Täydellistetään is a Finnish verb form that means “is being perfected” or “is perfected.” It is the present passive form of the verb täydellistää, which means to make something perfect or to refine it toward perfection. The construction combines the stem of the verb with the passive suffix -taan/-tään in the present tense, yielding -tellaan in this case. The passive voice expresses that the action is performed on the subject by an unspecified agent.

Usage and nuances: Täydellistää is used in contexts of quality improvement, editing, product development, software refinement, and similar processes where something is gradually refined to meet exact standards. The form täy…tään is common in impersonal statements or when the actor is unknown. It can be used with a specific subject as well, for example prosessi täydellistetään jatkuvasti databases and production lines are continuously refined to achieve higher quality, while other contexts may employ täydellistettiin or täydellistetty to refer to actions completed in the past or as a status.

Grammar and related forms: Täydellistetään is the present passive. Related forms include täydellistää (infinitive active: “to perfect”); täydelillistettiin (past passive: “was perfected”); täydeellistetty (past participle: “has been perfected”); and täydellistettäisiin (conditional). These forms allow speakers to express ongoing refinement, completed perfection, or hypothetical refinement, depending on tense and mood.

Examples:

- Koodia täydellistetään ennen julkaisua. (The code is being perfected before release.)

- Prosessi täydellistetään jatkuvasti laatuvaatimusten täyttämiseksi. (The process is refined continuously to meet quality standards.)

Täydellistetään thus functions as a specialized passive form signaling ongoing improvement toward perfection within Finnish technical, industrial, and editing contexts.
