Erikujulised

Erikujulised is an Estonian adjective formed from eri- meaning different and kujuline meaning shaped. It is used to describe objects, forms, or phenomena that exhibit multiple distinct shapes within a set or category. The word signals shape variety rather than uniformity and agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case, for example erikujulised vormid or erikujulised esemed.

The term is descriptive rather than strictly technical, and its usage spans several domains. In design, architecture, and industry it can indicate a product line that contains several geometries. In biology and geology it may describe specimens or particles that show varied morphology or morphology within a population. In writing and journalism, erikujulised provides a concise way to convey diversity of shape without listing every variant.

Typical collocations include erikujulised objektid, erikujulised vormid, and erikujulised kujundid. The expression is flexible and commonly appears in catalogues, scholarly texts, and descriptive passages. It is often used alongside phrases such as „mitmekesine kujundus“ or „kujude mitmekesisus“ when broader shape diversity is being discussed.

See also: kujundus, vorm, morfoloogia. Erikujulised is a usable, everyday descriptive term in Estonian; in more technical writing a specific term for the relevant domain may replace it, or it may be complemented with a more exact description of the shapes involved.
