voittajille

Voittajille is a Finnish noun form that functions as the allative plural of voittaja, meaning "to the winners" or "for the winners." The allative case in Finnish marks direction toward someone or something or indicates the beneficiary of an action. Therefore voittajille signals the plural recipients of an action, such as receiving a prize or benefiting from an event.

The form is created from the base voittaja (winner) with the plural nominative voittajat and the allative suffix -lle, yielding voittajille. This construction is common in contexts such as prize distributions, awards, and events intended for winners.

Examples:

- Palkinnot jaettiin voittajille. — The prizes were distributed to the winners.

- Tilaisuus on suunnattu voittajille. — The event is aimed at the winners.

- Voittajille annettiin erikoispalkinnot. — Special prizes were given to the winners.

In Finnish, the allative can express either a destination or a beneficiary, depending on the verb and context. Voittajille is thus used whenever the referent is a group of winners who receive or benefit from something.
