Korraldamiseks

Korraldamiseks is an Estonian linguistic term that marks the translative case of the noun korraldamine, meaning organization or arranging. It functions to express purpose, roughly translating to “for organizing” or “in order to organize.” The suffix -seks signals the translative form, indicating the aim or intended outcome of an action rather than a specific event.

In practice, korraldamiseks is used to describe the purpose of an activity or the resources required for organizing something. It is common in formal writing, project plans, event management, and administrative texts. For example, sentences such as “Korraldamiseks on moodustatud komisjon” (A committee has been formed for organizing [the event]) or “Korraldamiseks vajalik eelarve on eraldatud” (The budget necessary for organizing has been allocated) illustrate its use. It can also modify noun phrases, as in “korraldamiseks vajaliku teabe kogumine,” meaning the collection of information necessary for organizing.

Etymology traces korraldamiseks to the verb korraldama (to organize) and the noun korraldamine (organization/arrangement), with strong emphasis on purpose through the translative case. This form is distinct from other cases in Estonian and is typically found in contexts related to planning, coordination, and resource allocation.
