DIGITAalsed

Digitaalsed is an Estonian adjective meaning digital. It is used to describe things related to digital technology, digital media, or data processing. The form is the plural nominative; the singular corresponding form is digitaalne. Examples include digitaalsed lahendused (digital solutions), digitaalsed andmed (digital data), and digitaalsed teenused (digital services).

Etymology and usage context: The term derives from digitaal, borrowed from English digital, which ultimately traces to Latin digitalis. In contemporary Estonian, digitaalsed appears widely in technology, business, government, and media discourse, especially in discussions of digital transformation, digitization, and digital infrastructure. It functions as a descriptive modifier for plural nouns and often contrasts with the singular digitaalne when referring to a single digital entity.

Morphology and notes: Like other Estonian adjectives, digitaalsed changes form to agree with the noun in number and case. The uninflected root is digitaal-, with -ne forming the singular and -sed forming the plural in the nominative case. In other cases, the endings change according to standard Estonian adjective declension patterns.

See also: digitaalne, digitaliseerimine, digitaaltehnika. Digitaalsed is part of a broader vocabulary used to discuss technology and modernization in Estonian, where many terms integrate English roots adapted to Estonian grammar.
