Eksperimentaalsete

Eksperimentaalsete is Estonian and functions as an inflected form of the adjective eksperimentaalne, meaning experimental. It is the genitive plural form used to modify a noun in the genitive case, typically in formal or academic writing.

In Estonian adjectives decline to agree with the noun in number, case and, to some extent, definiteness. The nominative plural form of the adjective is eksperimentaalsed, while the genitive plural form is eksperimentaalsete. This pattern allows the phrase eksperimentaalsete meetodite to mean “of experimental methods” or “experimental methods’” in English.

Usage of eksperimentaalsete is common in scientific, technical, and scholarly texts where the writer discusses methods, technologies, procedures, or concepts that are characterized as experimental. It appears most often in noun phrases where the head noun is in the genitive plural, for example: eksperimentaalsete meetodite (of experimental methods), eksperimentaalsete tehnoloogiate (of experimental technologies), eksperimentaalsete uuringute (of experimental studies).
