Korrastuma

Korrastuma is an Estonian word that translates to "to be put in order," "to be straightened," or "to become tidy." It describes a process of organization, arrangement, or correction. The term can be applied to physical objects, situations, or even abstract concepts. For instance, one might say that a messy room has korrastuma as it is cleaned and organized, or that a complicated problem has korrastuma when a solution is found and understood.

In a broader sense, korrastuma implies a transition from a state of disorder, chaos, or disarray to one of order, harmony, or correctness. This can involve activities like sorting, tidying, arranging, or establishing a system. The opposite of korrastuma would be a state of disorder or disarray. The word emphasizes the active process of achieving order. It is a common and versatile term in the Estonian language, used in everyday conversation as well as in more formal contexts when discussing organizational principles or problem-solving.
