erittely

Nouns ending in -y like 'erittely' belong to inflection type 27. These nouns have a stem that ends in a single consonant + i. When inflected, the -y changes to -i- before the case ending. For example, in the partitive case, 'erittely' becomes 'erittelyä'.

When using 'erittely' in the genitive case, which indicates possession or a relationship, the -y ending changes to -i and the genitive ending -n is added. Thus, 'erittely' becomes 'erittelyn'.
