Laadimis

Laadimis is an Estonian term used to denote the act or process of loading or charging. It derives from the verb laadima, meaning to load or to charge. The standard noun form for the general concept is laadimine; laadimis appears as a grammatical variant in certain constructions, for example in genitive phrases like laadimise aeg (charging time) or laadimise protsess (loading process). The word can therefore occur in different inflected forms depending on case and syntactic role.

In usage, laadimis spans several domains. In technology and energy contexts it commonly refers to charging activities, such as the charging of batteries in mobile devices or electric vehicles. In computing, phrases like failide laadimine (loading of files) and andmete laadimine (data loading) are typical. In logistics, laadimine can describe the act of placing goods onto a vehicle for transport, though more often the corresponding compound may be used.

Terminology notes: although laadimine is the standard form for the general concept, laadimis can be encountered in compound nouns and in headlines where the genitive form is preferred for linguistic reasons. Related terms include laadimispunkt (charging or loading point), laadimise ajal (during charging), and laadimistekst (a context-specific phrase referring to text about loading or charging).
