Agentuurist

Agentuurist is the singular elative case form of the Estonian noun agentuur, which means “agency” or “agency office.” The elative case indicates origin or source and is used to show that something comes from or originates with a specific agency. The form agentuurist is used in neutral or formal prose, and the corresponding plural elative is agentuuridest (from the agencies).

Usage notes: agentuurist typically answers questions of source, origin, or provenance in Estonian sentences. It is common in news reporting, official documents, and descriptive text to specify that information or items come from a particular agency. Because it is a standard grammatical form, it does not carry any special ideological meaning beyond indicating source.

Examples:

- Teade pärines agentuurist. (The notice came from the agency.)

- Info pärineb agentuurist. (The information originates from the agency.)

Related terms and forms:

- agentuur (agency)

- elative (the grammatical case to express origin or source)

- agentuuridest (from the agencies, plural elative)

In summary, agentuurist is a routine grammatical inflection used to denote origin from an agency in Estonian, functioning as a normal part of sentence construction in formal and neutral contexts.
