välitettyyn

Välitettyyn is a Finnish inflected form of the verb välittää, meaning to convey, transmit, or forward. It is formed from the past passive participle välitetty and is used to express that the action of conveying is directed toward a destination or recipient, as indicated by the illative case ending. In Finnish, the illative is used to convey motion into or toward something, and forms like välitettyyn appear in more formal or written contexts.

Morphology and usage notes: The base participle välitetty denotes something that has been conveyed or transmitted. When inflected for direction toward a destination or recipient, it can take the illative ending, resulting in a form such as välitettyyn. This kind of construction is more common in legal, administrative, or literary Finnish than in everyday speech. The exact ending patterns in Finnish irregularities mean that such forms may appear in fixed phrases or specialized texts, rather than in casual conversation.

Meaning and function: As a grammatical form, välitettyyn does not introduce a new lexical sense by itself; instead, it serves to modify a noun or to function within a clause to indicate that the conveying action has been directed to a particular place, person, or entity. For example, a sentence might refer to “viesti välitettyyn osoitteeseen,” meaning that the message was forwarded to a specified address.
