Partitive Finnish(partitive case):I will be teaching you about the partitive form in Finnish (or the “Partitiivi”)
The partitive form is a special grammatical case in the Finnish language that is used frequently for nouns, pronouns and also adjectives.
In this first section we will cover the basics - how to "construct" the partitive and three different common cases when the partitive form is used.

Why are there three variants: a, ta & tta? Here's an explanation. Originally, the partitive singular was always ta/tä. The plural partitive was always ita/itä. Finnish is a language that is full of historical sound changes. So, one form became multiple forms based on the sounds that surrounded the original form. Ta has been conserved as such in the following conditions: A: when the T of ta is between three vowels: maata, Lontoota. B: when the T is precedeed by a consonant: ihmiStä, kauneuTta, valmiSta, Ta->a when the T of ta was between two vowels. Autota->autoa, naruta->narua, koirata->koiraa. You see this same pattern in hVn kouluhun->kouluun, but maahan->maahan. ihmisehen->ihmiseen. -- Tta is originally k+ta->tta or hta->tta. Most of two-syllable words that today end with "e" (in writing), have had either a K or H at the end (terveh, veneh, etc.) When the ta was added to these words, the h/k assimilated to the t to make it easier to pronounce virhektä->virhettä, venehtä->venettä. -- Later the word-final H or K became a glottal stop. The glottal stop is the only sound in the Finnish language that doesn't have a symbol in the written language. So, terve really has an extra sound at the end, but it's not written down. THE EBD OF THE EXPLANATION --- Word-final m is similar: all word-final m sounds became n sounds. Avaim->avain. Ohjaim->ohjain. But if the M was in the middle of a word when the changed occurred, the m stayed and m. Avaimen, ohjaimen. The same word-final sound change & middle conservation applies to two-syllable words that today end with "i". Word-final e->i, but if the e was in the middle of a word. It stayed the same: vetEnä vs vesI.

I am trying to learn what is partitiivi. I understood how to constact clearly and when to use as much as I can. But I dont get, what is it? When I ask teachers they say, if u answer a mitä question, use partitiivi and mikä question nominatiivi. Ok, then when do I use a mitä or mikä question? Answer comes "If the answer is partitiivi then you use mitä." This turned out chicken and egg methafore! I am curious, if u can enlighten me and if yes, i will be thrilled. Kiitos videosta.💕🌺

Partitiivi (partitive), the name is a Latin term that means a part of a whole. Linguists used Latin to name the cases, but the case existed long before any linguist had taken a look at it. So, the name of the case gives us a hint about the use of the case "part of a whole". But we shouldn't rely on the name to figure out how to use it. I'm a native Finnish speaker, and I'll try to explain the main uses of partitiivi. I won't explain everything, because that wouldn't be useful right now, but I will explain the main points. Finnish has four types of sentences: declarative sentences, existential sentences, imperative/command sentence & necessative sentences. The partitive case is governed by different rules in each sentence type. So, I won't teach all of them now. Like Sean said in the video, the partitive case is present in nouns (substantiivi) & adjectives that modify them (adjektiivi). I will only focus on declarative sentences in this presentation. In declarative sentences, partitive can only be present in the grammatical object. What is the grammatical object? The grammatical object is the thing being played, seen, done etc. He plays FOOTBALL. He saw a MAN. he drank WATER. A dog chased a CAT. etc. Whenever you do something, that something has to be linked to the verb in Finnish. In English, the word order is enough. A dog chases a cat. A cat chases a dog. The meaning is completely different. The word-order tells us which one is the chaser and which one is the chasee. In Finnish, we have to mark the chasee, the thing being drunk, played, seen, watched etc. There are two basic cases that are used to mark the grammatical object: partitiivi & akkusatiivi. The partitive is used when the noun is uncountable. The accusative is used when the noun is countable. Juon vettä (I drink water) water is uncountable = partitiivi). Ostan lampun (I buy a lamp) lamp is countable = akkusatiivi. Ostan ison lampun. Iso is an adjective, and it has to agree with lamppu so it, too, gets the accusative case iso->ison, lamppu->lampun. -- The partitive case is used when a noun is uncountable AND when an action is not realized = a negative meaning. I don't drink water. En juo vettä (water=partitive because the sentence meaning is negative) I don't buy a lamp. (En osta lamppua. Lamp=partitive, because the meaning of the sentence is negative). --- I could go on, but it wouldn't be helpful. Start with two questions: 1. Is the sentence negative? Yes-> partitive. No->step 2. 2. Is the noun uncountable? Yes->partitive. No->accusative. There are a couple of other questions, but I won't go into them until you've mastered these two. Now, it's your turn. Tell me whether the accusative case or the partitive case is used in the following sentences. A) I will buy a car. B) I will sell a car. C) I will sell milk. D) I will buy a bottle (of water). E) I will not buy a bottle (of water).

Very good. Nen ending is peculiar. Before adding any ending, you need to change the nen into s. Iloinen->ilois. Then you can add the ta ending. What does ilois become? Ihminen works according to the same logic. What is the partitive case form of ihminen?

@beyzal2177 2 ай бұрын

Why we change nen into s?Is it rule about partitivi?

Kieli becomes kielia or kielta ?? According to rule kielia but I saw it as kielta .why ?

@excitedaboutlearning1639 6 ай бұрын

Here's the explanation. Back in the day (a thousand years ago or so). All partitive singular endings were -ta/-tä and all plural endings were -ita/itä. At some point, consonants started disappearing. A consonant was lost if it was between TWO but not THREE consonants. Maitota became maitoa, because the t of -ta was betweytwo vowels. Similarly, koirata became koiraa. However, if there were going to be three vowels together, the consonant was not lost. So, maata stayed maata. Kouluhun became kouluun, but maahan stayed maahan. --- Finnish history is full of sound changes: consonants disappearing between vowels, two consonants becoming one long consonant, two different vowels becoming one long vowel - the language is full of sound changes! A very prominent place where sound changes took place is at the end of words. Originally, many words ended with "e". Keele, vete, kakte, ykte, viite, kuute and so on. The endings (sijamuoto) were added to this original nominative form. Vete+nä=vetenä, vete+n=veten, vete+hen=vetehen. Later consonant gradation started. So, veten became veden. Viite+n=viiden became viiden. In the case of kieli. The original nominative is keele (kiele). The partitive singular used to always be -ta/-tä. So, kiele+tä became kieletä. Later the "e" was lost. Kieltä. The plural partitive itä followed the familiar pattern: Kiele+itä->kielitä. Now, the t ended up between two vowels. So, it was lost -> kieliä. Here's a similar pattern for vesi. The origin form was vete. Vete+tä=vetetä. The e was lost -> vettä. The nominative isn't vete anymore, because all word-final "e" sounds in two-syllable words became "i" kiele->kieli, vete->veti. Later all ti->si. Veti->vesi, viite->viiti->viisi. --- The variation exists, because the endings were on e added to the nominative case, but after they were added, the started to live a life of their own. So, it didn't matter that the nominative case changed. It's hard to explain in a textual form as it's not interactive. It'd be easier to explain in a dialog. If you have any questions, ask them, and I'll do my best to explain them.

All nen words are peculiar, because before adding any ending you replace the nen by s. So, iloinen->ilois. Then you add the specific ending. In this case "ta". So, what does ilois+ta become?
