Kordamisele

Kordamisele is the allative form of the Estonian noun kordamine, which means repetition or practice. It is used to express direction toward repetition or the purpose of repeating material. In educational and linguistic contexts, kordamisele often appears in phrases that describe what is intended for repetition or what time or resources are allocated for repetition.

Common uses include phrases such as kordamisele pühendatud harjutused (exercises dedicated to repetition), kordamisele kuluv aeg (time spent on repetition), and kordamisele suunatud tegevused (activities aimed at repetition). These constructions highlight that the material, activity, or time is planned or allocated with repetition in mind, to reinforce learning or skill retention.

Grammatical note: kordamisele is formed from the noun kordamine plus the allative/dative ending -le, indicating direction toward repetition or purpose. It is typically found in noun phrases modifying other nouns (for example, harjutused, aeg, tegevused) and can be contrasted with related forms such as kordamine (the act of repeating) and kordamise (the genitive form).

In educational practice, kordamisele is a common way to specify components of a study plan, such as schedules, assignments, or materials that emphasize repetition as a learning strategy. Its usage underlines the importance placed on rehearsal and practice in knowledge retention and skill development within Estonian pedagogy.
