välittämien

Välittämien is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb välittää, which can mean to convey, to transfer, to mediate, or, in another sense, to care about. In ongoing language use, välittämien appears as a plural genitive or as a participial form within noun phrases, typically functioning to indicate information, messages, or other items that have been conveyed or mediated by someone. The exact interpretation depends on context, with broader meaning covering both the act of conveying and the sense of concern or care in certain constructions.

Etymology and morphology are linked to Finnish nominalization and possessive agreement. The base verb välittää combines with the nominalizing suffix -minen to form välittäminen, a term for the act or process of conveying or mediating. The ending -mien signals a plural genitive form used to modify a following noun in phrases that describe “the conveyed/mediated [information, messages, etc.]” in relation to another element in the sentence. As a result, välittämien appears most often in formal or written Finnish where it accompanies a noun that it describes or relates to in terms of source or content.

Usage in sentences is typically as part of larger subordinate clauses or noun phrases that denote content originating from a sender or intermediary. It is common in journalism, official reporting, or scholarly writing when citing what has been conveyed by others, rather than presenting information directly from the speaker. The form helps to foreground the source or process of transmission within the statement.
