Questions & Answers about Hankkeen rahoitus on epävarma, joten sitä ei aloitettane.
How do we form the negative potential passive ei aloitettane?
For the verb aloittaa (to start), the affirmative potential passive is aloitettaneen (it will probably be started). To make it negative, we simply drop the final personal ending -en, leaving aloitettane, and pair it with the negative verb ei.
Why is the pronoun for 'it' in the partitive case (sitä) instead of the nominative (se)?
In Finnish, the object of a negative sentence is almost always in the partitive case. While an affirmative passive sentence would use the nominative (se aloitetaan - it is started), the negative verb ei forces the object to become sitä.
How is the word rahoitus (funding) built?
It is derived from the core noun raha (money). From raha, you form the verb rahoittaa (to finance or to fund). Adding the noun-forming suffix -us to the verb stem gives you rahoitus, meaning funding or financing.
How do we get from the dictionary form hanke (project) to hankkeen?
Hanke is a noun that ends in -e. To form the genitive case, which indicates possession (the project's funding), you double the final vowel and add -n, resulting in hankkeen.
