vuotuisia

Vuotuisia is a Finnish adjective form meaning annual or yearly. It appears in the plural partitive when modifying a plural noun, typically in contexts referring to values, revenues, costs, or other quantities measured on a per-year basis. The form corresponds to the nominative plural vuotuiset and is commonly used in official reports, budgets, and statistical texts to describe year-by-year figures.

Etymology and grammar: The word derives from vuosi (year) with the adjectival suffix -tuinen. The basic form vuotuinen expresses annual; in the plural partitive, the ending becomes -ia, yielding vuotuisia. This form is used when the noun it modifies is in the partitive case, such as after verbs or in certain expressions of amount or quantity.

Usage examples: In Finnish you would say "vuotuisia tuloja" (annual revenues) or "vuotuisia menoja" (annual expenses). In budget or financial reporting, phrases like "vuotuisia arvoja" or "vuotuiset tulot" show the annual dimension. The form is common in financial, economic, and statistical writing, helping to specify that the quantities pertain to a single year.

See also: Related forms include vuotuinen (the base singular form meaning annual) and vuotuisesti (adverb meaning annually).
