Helikujundajatele

Helikujundajatele is the dative plural form of helikujundaja, the Estonian word for a sound designer. The phrase functions to indicate the indirect object or recipient in a sentence, and it roughly translates to “to the sound designers” or “for the sound designers.” It is commonly used in manuals, guidelines, invitations and other communications directed at professionals who work with sound in film, theatre, radio, games and related media.

This form appears after verbs or prepositions that require a beneficiary or target of an action, for example in statements like “käesolev juhend on mõeldud helikujundajatele” (this guide is intended for sound designers) or “materjalid on helikujundajatele kättesaadavad” (the materials are available for sound designers).

Usage and context: Helikujundajatele is typically found in professional or formal Estonian texts related to audio production, such as educational materials, industry announcements, and project briefs. It signals that the content or resources are tailored for the needs and interests of sound designers, rather than a general audience.

Relation to related terms: The singular form helikujundaja refers to an individual sound designer, while helikujundus denotes the field or practice of sound design. The dative plural helikujundajatele is a grammatical variant used specifically to address or address-for a group of sound designers.
