Esitlesid

Esitlesid is the Estonian past tense form of the verb esitlema, meaning to present or introduce. It is a conjugated verb form used with a plural subject, and it denotes that the presenting action occurred in the past. Esitlesid is not a noun; it is a verb form that appears in narrative, reporting, and descriptive text.

In usage, esitlesid describes events where multiple subjects presented something to an audience or group. It is commonly found in news reports, conference summaries, and descriptions of launches or exhibitions. For example: Nad esitlesid oma uuringu tulemused konverentsil. Kunstnikud esitlesid näitusel oma teoseid. Nad esitlesid uue tootevaliku turundusstrateegiat.

Grammatically, esitlesid is the past tense form used with a plural subject. It reflects that the action of presenting was completed by more than one actor. The form is built from the verb stem esitle- plus the past-tense plural suffix -sid, a pattern typical of Estonian verb conjugation for third-person plural in the past.

Etymology notes: esitlema is the infinitive meaning to present or introduce, and esitlesid is formed as the past tense plural form of this verb. The related noun esitlemine refers to the act or process of presenting, forming a lexical pair with esitlema.
