uutisissa

Uutisissa is a Finnish term meaning “in the news.” It is formed from the plural noun uutiset (the news) combined with the inessive suffix -issa to indicate location, yielding a phrase that can be translated as “in the news” or “in the news reports.” The expression is commonly used to refer to content that appears within news broadcasts, articles, or other media coverage, or to describe the state of being covered by the media.

Usage examples are frequent in journalism and everyday language. For instance, sentences such as “Uutisissa kerrottiin, että…” (In the news, it was reported that…) or “Uutisissa tänään käsitellään talouskysymyksiä” (In the news today, economic issues are discussed) illustrate how uutisissa functions as a locational phrase within a sentence.

Etymology and grammar: The base word uutinen means a news item or report, and its plural form uutiset refers to the news as a collection. The inessive plural suffix -issa/-issä attaches to form uutisissa, indicating “in the news” in a plural sense. This pattern is a standard feature of Finnish noun inflection.
