äännettyä

äännettyä is a Finnish word that translates to "spoken" or "pronounced" in English. It is the past participle of the verb "äänteä," which means "to sound" or "to pronounce." The word can be used in various contexts to describe the act of uttering sounds or words, or the quality of how something is spoken.

For example, one might say "hänen puheensa oli selvästi äännettyä" which translates to "his speech was clearly spoken." This indicates that the words were articulated distinctly and were easy to understand. In linguistics, "äännettyä" can refer to the phonetic realization of a sound or a word. It describes how sounds are produced by the vocal organs and perceived by the listener.

The word can also be used in a more abstract sense, referring to something that has been expressed or communicated through speech. For instance, "mitä on äännettynä on tärkeää" could mean "what has been spoken is important." This emphasizes the significance of the spoken word or the message conveyed. Therefore, "äännettyä" encompasses both the physical act of pronunciation and the communicative act of speaking.
