Realiteetidega

Realiteetidega is an Estonian term formed as the instrumental/comitative plural of the noun realiteet, which means reality or fact. It is used to express “with realities” or “in consideration of real conditions.” In usage, realiteetidega often appears in formal or analytical contexts, where speakers or writers emphasize that actions, plans, or arguments should take actual circumstances into account rather than idealized assumptions.

Etymology and form: realiteet is a loanword from a Romance or Latin origin meaning reality. The plural nominative is realiteedid, and the instrumental/comitative plural form is realiteetidega, used to indicate accompaniment or to mark what is to be considered alongside other factors. The construction mirrors Estonian grammar where comitative forms describe things done with or in relation to certain elements.

Usage and context: realiteetidega is common in policy discussions, journalism, philosophy, and academic writing. It signals a grounding in factual conditions and is often contrasted with idealized scenarios. Typical verbs that pair with it include arvestama (to take into account), tuleb arvestada (must take into account), and planimise or järelduste tegemise contexts.

Examples:

- Poliitikud peavad realiteetidega arvestama. (Politicians must take realities into account.)

- Projekti planeerimine peab toimuma realiteetidega arvestades. (Project planning must proceed with consideration of realities.)

Note: realiteetidega is not a separate concept; it is a grammatical form of realiteet used to discuss realities in a contextual, real-world sense. See also the base word realiteet.
