viemisessä

Viemisessä is a Finnish linguistic term describing the inessive form of the noun vieminen, which means the act of taking, bringing, or transporting something. The root comes from the verb viedä (to take or bring). Viemisessä is used to indicate that the action of transporting is currently taking place or is situated within the process itself. In Finnish grammar, it appears as the "in the act of" form when discussing ongoing transport or transfer activities.

Morphology and meaning are straightforward: vieminen forms the base noun for the concept of transporting, and the inessive suffix -ssä yields viemisessä, literally “in the act of taking/bringing.” This construction helps specify the stage or status of a process, rather than the general idea of transport or the result of the transport. It is a formal or technical usage that can appear in descriptive texts, reports, or legal-language passages dealing with movement or transfer of goods, people, or information.

Usage and scope: Viemisessä is commonly found in contexts such as logistics, administration, and contractual descriptions, where it is important to denote that a transfer is underway rather than completed. It contrasts with vieminen (the act of taking/bringing in general) and viennin (export or outward shipment in broader terms). Its use tends toward formal or written Finnish and is less common in everyday speech.

Examples: “Tavaran viemisessä on kolme vaihetta: pakkaus, kuljetus ja jakelu.” “Sopimuksessa viemisessä tarkoittaa tavaran siirtämistä myyjältä ostajalle.”
