Eksperimenteerimiseks

Eksperimenteerimiseks is a word in Estonian that expresses the purpose or aim of carrying out experiments. It is formed from the verb eksperimenteerima, “to experiment,” with the suffix -miseks, which marks purpose and translates roughly to “for experimentation” or “in order to experiment.” The form is used to indicate that an action or set of actions is undertaken with the goal of testing ideas, methods, or materials.

In practical use, eksperimenteerimiseks appears in contexts related to research, development, and testing. It can modify nouns or appear in clauses that describe planned activities, requirements, or resources needed for experimentation. It is common in academic writing, project descriptions, and technical documentation when specifying the aims of an activity or the prerequisites for a trial.

Examples illustrate its function. Eksperimenteerimiseks on oluline selge hüpotees. (For experimentation, a clear hypothesis is important.) Projekti raames koostati kava, mis kirjeldas sammud eksperimenteerimiseks. (Within the project, a plan was drafted describing the steps for experimentation.)

Related terms include eksperiment (an experiment), eksperimenteerima (to experiment), and eksperimenteerimine (the act or process of experimenting). The form eksperimenteerimiseks helps link actions to their experimental purpose and is a common linguistic tool in Estonian for clarifying intentional testing.
