Kogunemistega

Kogunemistega is an Estonian compound formed from the noun kogunemine (gathering) in its genitive plural kogunemiste and the comitative suffix -ga. The resulting form kogunemistega means “with gatherings” and functions as a comitative modifier in a sentence.

Etymology and form: The base kogunemine denotes the act or instance of gathering. To express accompaniment or association with that notion, the genitive plural kogunemiste is combined with the comitative suffix -ga, yielding kogunemistega. This construction is used to indicate what accompanies or is related to gatherings rather than as a stand-alone noun.

Usage: Kogunemistega is commonly found in formal or policy-oriented Estonian, especially in discussions about events, safety, or regulatory matters. For example, phrases such as kogunemistega kaasnevad piirangud (restrictions that accompany gatherings) and kogunemistega seotud planeerimine (planning related to gatherings) illustrate its typical function in linking gatherings to associated considerations.

Grammatical notes: Kogunemistega is a noun phrase in the comitative case, formed from the genitive plural of kogunemine plus -ga. It can modify other nouns or appear in predicative constructions where accompaniment or association with gatherings is being stated.
