Esitatavate

Esitatavate is an Estonian grammatical form, specifically the genitive plural of the adjective esitatav, meaning “to be submitted” or “to be presented.” In formal and administrative language, esitatav describes items that are intended for submission or presentation, and esitatavate is used to modify nouns in genitive plural to express “of those to be submitted” or “to be submitted.”

In usage, esitatavate appears before a noun in genitive plural. For example, esitatavate dokumentide loetelu means “the list of documents to be submitted,” and esitatavate andmete kvaliteet means “the quality of the data to be submitted.” The form signals that the described items are not yet submitted but are designated for submission. It does not carry a standalone lexical sense beyond this grammatical function, and it is most common in official, legal, or bureaucratic contexts.

Morphology and syntax notes: esitatatav is the base adjective meaning “to be submitted.” Its genitive plural form esitatavate is used to modify plural nouns in genitive (e.g., esitatavate dokumentide, esitatavate andmete). In Estonian, this pattern is typical for attributive adjectives preceding a noun that is itself in genitive or a related case within noun phrases describing requirements or items for future submission.

Related terms include esitatav (to-be-submitted, singular) and esitada (to submit). Esitatavate is primarily a grammatical form rather than a standalone concept, and its usage reflects formal documentation and procedural language.
