Ajastusi

Ajastusi is an Estonian noun form meaning timings, tempos, or pacing. It is the partitive plural of the word ajastus, which refers to the act or state of timekeeping, tempo, or scheduling. The base ajastus derives from aeg, meaning time, with the suffix -stus that creates a noun denoting a process or state.

In usage, ajastusi appears when discussing multiple timing aspects or schedules. In music and performing arts, it can denote the various timings of passages, entrances, or tempo changes. In film, television, and theatre, ajastusi may refer to the scheduling or timing of shots, cues, and scenes. In planning, operations, or event management, the term is used to describe several planned timings or time-based milestones.

Notes on form and nuance: ajastusi is the partitive plural, used when the statement involves “some timings” or unspecified quantities of timing aspects. The corresponding nominative plural is ajastused. As a term, ajastusi is primarily encountered in Estonian-language texts and is mainly of linguistic interest to non-native speakers studying Estonian vocabulary related to time and scheduling.
