yleiskielisestä

Yleiskielisestä is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the adjective yleiskielinen, meaning standard or general language. It is the elative singular form used when an adjective modifies a noun that is in the elative case. In practice, yleiskielisestä appears in phrases where the relationship is described as coming from or related to standard Finnish.

The concept hinges on yleiskieli, which refers to the standard register of Finnish as opposed to various other varieties such as puhekieli (colloquial speech) or kirjakieli (literary or formal written language). In linguistic descriptions, yleiskielinen and its inflected forms are used to label features, expressions, or terminology that belong to the standard language repertoire. The elative form yleiskielisestä therefore signals a source or domain: something "from standard language" or "of standard-language origin."

Usage notes:

- yleiskielisestä is a case-inflected form used to modify a noun in the elative, for example yleiskielisestä ilmaisusta (from a standard-language expression) or yleiskielisestä sanastosta (from standard-language vocabulary).

- It is not a separate lexical item; it is a grammatical inflection of yleiskielinen.

- The form commonly appears in written Finnish and in linguistic analyses discussing differences between language registers.
