In scientific and technical writing, mõõdetavatest is commonly used to classify variables, data, or quantities that can be empirically assessed. It helps distinguish between measurable and non-measurable aspects of a study, experiment, or model. For example, phrases such as mõõdetavatest suurustest or mõõdetavatest muutujatest appear in discussions of data selection, validation, or methodological limitations. The term emphasizes that the referenced elements are subject to measurement or quantification.

The exact case ending depends on the noun and syntactic role in the sentence.
