Etymology[edit]

The adessive plural of *lähettyvä (from lähi- (close, near)), which is morphologically a present active participle of a verb *lähettyä (formed as lähi- +‎ -ttyä). However, as such a verb is entirely unattested, it appears more likely that the stem was formed by analogy with words like näkyvillä and ulottuvilla.
