Objektidele

Objektidele is the plural allative form of the Estonian noun objekt, meaning “to the objects” or “for the objects.” In grammatical terms, it marks direction toward multiple objects and is used in contexts where the action is carried toward those objects. It is formed by adding the allative plural suffix -idele to the plural stem of objekt.

In Estonian, objektid is the nominative plural, objektide is the genitive plural, and objekte is the partitive plural. Objektidele represents the allative plural, which expresses movement toward or targeting of several objects, or a relation directed at those objects. The form is used with verbs and constructions that require a recipient, target, or location in the sense of “to/onto/for the objects.”

Uses of objektidele appear in domains such as description of transfers, placement, or distribution involving multiple objects, as well as in data or documentation where objects are the intended recipients or targets of an action. Like other Estonian case forms, objektidele changes its ending according to case and number, and it works together with the surrounding predicate to convey the directional or recipient meaning.

Etymology traces objekt back to a borrowed root meaning “object,” with Estonian inflectional suffixes producing the allative plural form. As part of the larger Estonian case system, objektidele is one of several inflected forms that allow precise expression of relationships between nouns and verbs in sentences.
