Auditeeritakse

Auditeeritakse is the present passive form of the Estonian verb auditeerima, meaning to audit. It expresses that something is subject to an audit, with the agent performing the auditing left unspecified. The form is used to describe ongoing or planned auditing in a neutral, impersonal way, typical of formal statements, reports, and news.

Morphology and usage: The word is formed from the verb stem auditeer-, plus the passive suffix -takse, yielding auditeeritakse. It does not convey a specific agent; the focus is on the action of auditing itself. It can refer to companies, documents, processes, or other entities that are being or will be audited. In context, the exact timing is determined by accompanying words (for example, next year, this year, annually).

Examples:

- Ettevõte auditeeritakse järgmisel aastal. (The company will be audited next year.)

- Finantsdokumendid auditeeritakse iga-aastaselt.

Related terms: auditeerimine (the act or process of auditing), auditeeritud (audited, past participle), auditeerija (auditor), and auditeeritav/auditeeritavus (auditable,可被审核的 in meaning).

Notes: As a finite passive form, auditeeritakse is common in official writing, regulatory filings, and organizational communications where the audit action is the primary focus and the auditor is not named. The word is specific to Estonian and reflects the language’s passive-voice conventions for formal statements.
