Jätmisel

Jätmisel is a term used in Estonian grammar to refer to a specific inflected form of a noun derived from a verb that denotes continuation. In common usage, it is described as the inessive form of the noun meaning continuation or the act of continuing, and it translates roughly to “in the continuation” or “during the ongoing process.”

Morphology and formation: Jätmisel is formed from a nominalized verb stem and the inessive suffix -misel, which marks location or time inside an ongoing action. Estonian has a set of such inessive forms for nouns ending in -mine or -minde, and jätmisel exemplifies how these forms are used to situate statements within a continuing sequence.

Usage and context: The form is most often found in formal, descriptive, or procedural texts, where it is useful to specify what occurs during the continuation of a process, event, or narrative. It can appear in project reports, legal or regulatory texts, and academic writing when the author wants to reference actions or conditions that take place as the process proceeds.

Examples:

- Projekti jätmisel tuleb järgida ettenähtud ajakava. (During the continuation of the project, one must follow the scheduled timeline.)

- Kirjutise jätmisel on oluline säilitada varasemate osade järjepidevus. (During the continuation of the writing, it is important to maintain the continuity of earlier sections.)
