-ttä tta Finnish Pronunciation Etymology 1 fi abessive From fi urj-fin-pro *-tta abessive, from fi urj-pro *-pta. Suffix case ttä Marks the abessive case: without Usage notes Suffixed to the genitive stem in the singular, to the same stem as the inessive in the plural. Not very commonly used outside of set phrases, especially the singular forms. The only abessive forms still in general use are abessive forms of the third infinitive. See the appendix on Finnish nominal cases for more information on how the abessive case is used. Synonyms without fi ilman + partitive, preposition, fi vailla + partitive, preposition Derived terms fi -ti caritive has developed into the general abessive case suffix in most Nyland and South Tavastian dialects Further reading Etymology 2 fi partitive Derived from the assimilated final consonant of the stem, *k or *h, plus the partitive suffix fi -ta partitive. Suffix case ttä fi -ta partitive partitive case ending Usage notes Used predominantly for words whose nominative singular ends in fi -e and which lengthen that final fi -e in other singular cases, as well as for ordinal numerals starting from kolmas. Traditionally also for fi ori. See the appendix on Finnish nominal cases for more information on how the partitive case is used. Etymology 3 fi adverbial From fi urj-fin-pro *-tta adverbial, from fi urj-fpr-pro *-kta. Suffix adverb ttä Forms certain adverbs, typically of manner. Derived terms fi adverbial fi -ti manner Further reading Etymology 4 fi nominal Probably re-extracted from fi navetta, fi karjetta, fi ometta, which may derive from contractions of fi aitta, which may contain an actual fi -tta suffix. Apart from it, this suffix is not found in any of the other Finnic languages. Suffix noun ttä fi rare Forms some nouns, generally for places. Usage notes Suffixed to the weak stem and appears to cause the final fi -a- to change to fi -e- in the same way as fi -mpi, fi -ella, fi -ntaa, fi -eta do. This may, however, be a gap in data, as fi karjetta and fi ometta may both be formed analogously to fi navetta, and the suffix fi -tto (which is derived from fi -tta) does not appear to exhibit this behavior.
