videokuvalla

Videokuvalla is the adessive singular form of the Finnish noun videokuva, meaning a video image or video footage. In Finnish grammar the adessive case marked by the suffix -lla/-llä signals instrument or means, so videokuvalla can be read as “with a video image” or “using video imagery” in a description of how something is done or what medium is involved.

Videokuva itself is a compound of video and kuva (image) and refers to moving images captured by a camera or stored video material. The term can denote the concept of a video image in various contexts such as media production, education, research, or advertising, and it is commonly used when distinguishing video imagery from still images or text.

As a grammatical form, videokuvalla is primarily a function of sentence structure rather than a separate technical concept. In practice, Finnish speakers more often use videokuva or videokuvat (video images or clips) in neutral references, and videokuvalla appears in phrases where the focus is the medium or means of presentation or analysis.

Related terms include videokuva (video image), videomateriaali (video material), and video as a loanword. The exact usage and naturalness of videokuvalla depend on context and register, with the base noun videokuva being the more common reference in everyday language.
