Läbibääsu

Läbibääsu is an Estonian term used to refer to a bypass—the mechanism or route that allows something to pass around an obstacle rather than through it. The word is formed from läbi, meaning through, and a loanword derived from the English "bypass". In standard usage, läbibääsu is the genitive form of läbibääs and appears in descriptions of particular bypass arrangements.

In infrastructure and urban planning, a bypass road is a typical example of a läbibääsu, designed to divert through traffic away from a congested area, thereby reducing travel time, pollution, and wear on local streets.

In medicine, bypass procedures reroute a flow of blood, air, or other fluid around a blockage or damaged region, restoring function. Coronary artery bypass grafting is a well-known medical example.

In electronics and information technology, a bypass path or component provides an alternative route for signals or currents when the primary path is unavailable or overloaded. Bypass capacitors, for instance, are used to stabilize voltage by offering a local energy reservoir, while software and networks may implement bypass rules to redirect traffic.

Usage and scope: läbibääsu is a general descriptive label rather than a single fixed term; its exact meaning is determined by the field and the accompanying nouns.
