Estimaatioille

Estimaatioille is a Finnish noun form meaning “to estimations” or “for estimations.” It is the allative case form of estimaatio, a loanword from English estimation, used in technical and academic Finnish to refer to estimation activities, assessments, or valuations. The base word estimaatio denotes the act or result of estimating and is related to arvio, arviointi, arviot, and estimointi.

In Finnish grammar, -lle marks the allative case, which expresses direction toward something or allocation to a purpose. Therefore, estimaatioille literally translates as “to estimations” or “for estimations” and is used when the sentence requires indicating the target or recipient of an estimation process or resource.

Usage is primarily found in specialized, formal, or technical writing, such as budgeting, project management, or statistical reporting, where English loanwords are common. In everyday Finnish, speakers may prefer native terms like arvio or arviointi, depending on the context.
