vertailevilla

Vertailevilla is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb vertailla, meaning to compare. It is the adessive plural form of the present active participle vertaileva, and it is commonly found in noun phrases to indicate that the associated features or aspects can be compared, or that the features themselves are comparable. As a form, vertailevilla is not a standalone lexical item but an inflected variant used in context to modify a noun.

Morphology and usage: The base participle vertaileva denotes “comparing” or “comparable.” In the adessive plural, it becomes vertailevilla, which is used to accompany nouns in phrases such as vertailevilla ominaisuuksilla varustetut laitteet or as part of a predicative construction like Laitteet ovat vertailevilla ominaisuuksilla varustettuja. This construction emphasizes that the features are suitable for comparison or that the devices share characteristics that can be compared.

Usage notes: Vertailevilla is primarily a technical or formal grammar form and is not typically used as a standalone everyday term. In more common language, one might instead phrase ideas with phrases like ominaisuuksiltaan vertailtavissa or verrattavilla ominaisuuksilla, depending on the exact nuance and syntactic position.
