yhteisille

Yhteisille is a Finnish word form derived from yhteisö, meaning a group or community. In standard Finnish grammar, the plural allative form of yhteisö is yhteisöille, used to indicate direction toward or benefit for multiple communities. The form yhteisille is not the standard spelling for the plural allative; it is typically regarded as a nonstandard variant or misspelling in contemporary written Finnish.

In use, yhteisöille appears in sentences that describe actions directed at or intended for communities. Examples include: Rahoitus kohdennettiin yhteisöille, meaning the funding was targeted at the communities; Palvelut on suunnattu yhteisöille, meaning the services are intended for the communities; Yhteisöille tarkoitetut ohjelmat was aimed at communities. These phrases show how the allative plural marks recipients or beneficiaries of programs, services, or resources.

Etymologically, yhteisö comes from the root yhteis-, meaning common or shared, and the noun-forming suffix -ö. The allative plural suffix -lle marks direction toward or applicability to multiple entities, hence yhteisöille = to/for the communities. The form is part of a broader system of Finnish noun inflection, where case and number endings convey precise spatial or relational meaning.
