törmäyksestä

Törmäyksestä is a Finnish grammatical form used to indicate origin or source in relation to the noun törmäys, which means collision or crash. Specifically, törmäyksestä is the elative case, corresponding to “from the collision” in English. It is used to refer to something that derives from or is a consequence of a collision, or to point to information obtained in connection with a collision.

In general usage, törmäyksestä appears in contexts such as accident reports, safety analyses, insurance statements, and scientific descriptions of events involving a collision. It answers questions like where something comes from or what event is the source of a given effect. For example, in a report: Törmäyksestä aiheutui vakavia vahinkoja, meaning “The collision caused serious damage.” Another example could be: Törmäyksestä saadut tiedot ohjasivat turvallisuusarvioita, meaning “The information from the collision guided the safety assessment.”

Etymologically, törmäys comes from the Finnish verb törmätä (to collide or crash), and the suffix -stä marks the elative case. As a word form, törmäyksestä remains relatively formal and is most commonly found in written language, official documentation, and analytical discourse rather than everyday casual conversation.
