Kõrgusnimetaotluse

Kõrgusnimetaotluse is a compound noun in Estonian. It is not a widely attested term in standard dictionaries or official glossaries, and its exact meaning is not established in public sources. Linguistically, it can be analyzed as a combination of the stems kõr gus (height), nimi (name) and taotlus (application or request). The ending -taotluse is the genitive singular form of taotlus, indicating a relation such as “of the height-name application.” Because the phrase is not common in practice, its interpretation depends on context.

Possible interpretations arise in imagined or specialized bureaucratic contexts. One plausible reading is that kõ regus-nimi taotlus refers to a form or procedure that concerns height-related data attached to a named entry—for example, an administrative request to modify or verify a person’s height data in a civil registry, sports federation records, or a cadastral or organizational database. Another plausible reading is that it designates a metadata or documentation item in which height information is linked to a specific name, and the term denotes the application dealing with that linkage.

In linguistic terms, the term illustrates how Estonian often forms compound nouns for formal or bureaucratic concepts by concatenating semantic parts and then marking the whole with the genitive when needed in a phrase. Because kõ regus-nimi taotlus is not a standard or widely used term, it should be treated as hypothetical rather than as an established label.
