Questions & Answers about Arvioimme soveltuvuutta, koska johtajan täytyy olla etevä kuuntelemisessa.

Why is 'at listening' translated as kuuntelemisessa rather than using the basic infinitive kuunnella?
Adjectives describing skill or proficiency, like etevä (capable), hyvä (good), or huono (bad), require the inessive case to show what area the skill is in. To do this with a verb, we form the fourth infinitive noun (kuunteleminen) and put it in the inessive case (kuuntelemisessa).
Why is the manager (johtaja) in the genitive case (johtajan)?
This is because of the necessive verb täytyy (must). In Finnish, verbs that express obligation require the logical subject of the sentence to be in the genitive case.
Why does arvioida (to assess) take the partitive object soveltuvuutta?
The verb arvioida is a partitive verb. Evaluating or assessing is generally treated as an ongoing, unbounded process rather than an action with a clear endpoint, so its object must be in the partitive case.
How is the noun soveltuvuutta built from its root?
It stems from the verb soveltua (to be suitable). Adding the noun-forming suffix -vuus creates the base noun soveltuvuus (suitability), which is then put into the partitive case here as soveltuvuutta.
