Questions & Answers about Tila on suljettu, koska korjausta ei rahoitettane.
How do we form the negative passive potential ei rahoitettane from the verb rahoittaa?
First, find the present passive form: rahoitetaan (is funded). Remove the ending -an to get the passive stem rahoiteta-, then add the potential marker -ne to get rahoitettane. Combine it with the negation word ei to express that the action is unlikely to happen: 'is unlikely to be funded' or 'probably won't be funded'.
Why is korjausta in the partitive case here?
In Finnish, the object of a negative verb must be in the partitive case. Since the funding is not happening (ei rahoitettane), the object of that funding, korjaus (repair), becomes korjausta.
The word tila has multiple meanings. How do we know it means 'space' here instead of 'state' or 'farm'?
It is entirely based on context. While tila can mean a 'state' (like a state of mind) or a 'farm', those do not typically get closed for physical repairs (korjausta). In public notices, tila is very commonly used to refer to a physical space, room, or premises.
Is on suljettu the passive perfect tense ('has been closed') or just an adjective ('is closed')?
