Korraldatavat

Korraldatavat is an Estonian present passive participle derived from the verb korraldama, meaning to organize. It functions as an attributive adjective and conveys the idea that something is to be organized or is in the process of being organized. The form is used to describe nouns that are planned or intended to be arranged by someone.

In use, korraldatav describes a state related to organizing, and its endings are inflected to match the noun in number and case. The specific form korrdaldatavat is one of the inflected endings, typically appearing before a non-nominative form of the noun. A common example is the noun phrase “korraldatav üritus,” meaning “an event to be organized” or “the event to be organized.” Other inflected forms (e.g., nominative singular “korraldatav”) occur in different grammatical contexts.

Examples:

- korraldatav üritus — an event to be organized

- korraldatavat üritust — an event to be organized (genitive or partitive singular)

The construction is often found in administrative, planning, or formal writing, where it helps indicate pending arrangements or intended activities without specifying who will perform the organizing.

Etymology and relation to other forms: korraldatavat is formed from korraldama plus the present passive participle suffix -atav, with further inflection for case and number. It is part of a broader set of Estonian participles that describe ongoing or planned actions related to a noun.
