Suurimat

Suurimat is the Estonian superlative form of the adjective suur, meaning the largest or greatest. It functions as the highest degree form used to describe a noun within a defined set or context.

In usage, suuurim appears in attributive phrases and agrees with the noun in number and case. It is commonly encountered in constructions that indicate comparison within a larger group, for example in phrases like maailma suurimat hoonet, meaning “the largest building in the world.” The exact form changes with grammatical case and the noun it modifies, so the ending may vary in different sentences or with different nouns.

Suurimat is primarily a linguistic term rather than the name of a place, organization, or widely recognized entity. There is no standard reference to Suurimat as a separate proper noun in common sources; rather, it is a grammatical inflection used in Estonian to express the superlative degree of size or significance. As such, it can appear in literature, language learning materials, and descriptive writing where emphasis on extremity is needed.
