Questions & Answers about Saavutettavuus on tärkeä tavoite kalustosta riippumatta.
Why is the word kalustosta in the elative case (-sta) here?
It is required by the postposition riippumatta (regardless of). This postposition always demands that the preceding noun is in the elative case, indicating what something is independent from.
Does the postposition riippumatta come from a verb?
Yes, it is formed from the verb riippua, which means to depend or to hang. The -matta ending is a verb form meaning without doing something, so riippumatta literally translates to without depending.
How is the long word saavutettavuus (accessibility) built?
It stems from the verb saavuttaa (to reach or achieve). Adding a passive participle ending makes it saavutettava (reachable or accessible), and adding the noun suffix -uus turns it into the abstract noun saavutettavuus (accessibility).
Can kalusto mean things other than a fleet of vehicles?
Yes, kalusto is a broad collective noun for equipment, hardware, or rolling stock. In the context of accessibility, it most likely refers to public transport vehicles, but elsewhere it could mean anything from office furniture to heavy machinery.
