Loetletakse

Loetletakse is an Estonian verb form meaning "is listed" or "are listed." It is the passive present tense of loetlema, which means to enumerate or to list. In Estonian, the passive form is used when the agent performing the action is unknown or not specified, making loetletakse suitable for impersonal or formal statements.

The form is commonly used to introduce or indicate items in a list within official or descriptive texts, such as documents, catalogs, manuals, or dictionaries. It does not indicate the number of items; the phrase can refer to a single item or multiple items, depending on the surrounding context. Loetletakse is often combined with phrases like järgmised or järgnenud to signal that a list follows, for example, loetletakse järgmised nõuded.

Examples:

- Loetletakse järgmised nõuded. (The following requirements are listed.)

- Loetletakse järgmised andmed: nimi, aadress, telefon. (The following data are listed: name, address, phone.)

- Dokument sisaldab loetletud punkte, mis selgitavad protseduuri. (The document contains listed points that explain the procedure.)

Related forms include loetlema (to list), loetletud (listed), and loetlemine (enumeration). Loetletakse is widely used in formal writing to present items clearly and concisely, without specifying who lists them.
