Pääideana

Pääideana is a concept in Estonian language and literature that refers to the main idea or central theme of a text. It is the core message or argument that the author wishes to convey to the reader. The term is derived from the Estonian words "pää" meaning head or main, and "idee" meaning idea or thought. In literary works, the pääideana is often the driving force behind the plot and character development. It provides a framework for the narrative and helps to guide the reader's interpretation of the text. In non-fiction works, the pääideana is the central argument or thesis that the author is presenting. It is the main point that the author is trying to make and is often supported by evidence and reasoning throughout the text. The pääideana is an essential element of any well-written text, as it helps to give the work coherence and direction. It is the idea that the author wants to leave with the reader, and it is the idea that the reader will take away from the text.
