Finnish

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

-ua (passive suffix) +‎ -tua. Verbs such as sekau(d)a ~ sekauta can be found in some dialects.[1] Traditionally an eastern dialectal form, while western dialects preferred -Vntua. The denominal suffix may be partially from -uus, -us (suffix forming nouns from adjectives, stem -(u)ut(e)) + -ua, but is likely just transferred from the deverbal suffix.

Suffix

[edit]

-utua (front vowel harmony variant -ytyä, stem -utu-, linguistic notation -UtU- or -UtUA)

  1. (deverbative) Forms reflexive or translative intransitive verbs.
  2. (denominal) Forms translative verbs from nouns and adjectives.
    apeutuato become depressed
    rantautuato go ashore

Usage notes

[edit]

Used on verbs ending in vowel + -a/, vowel + -ta/-tä, or on nouns.
