Language, 1980A distinctive feature of Finnish morphology is the possessive suffixes, which are found not only on possessed nouns, but also on adjectives, postpositions, and untensed verbs.

The possessive suffix has thus two main functions: establishing a relation between entities or a relation between an entity and the discourse and ...
