Sõnastatav
Sõnastatav is an Estonian adjective that translates to "articulate" or "expressible in words." It describes something that can be clearly and effectively communicated through language. This can apply to thoughts, feelings, ideas, or concepts. If a concept is sõnastatav, it means one can find the right words to explain it. Conversely, something that is not sõnastatav might be too complex, abstract, or deeply personal to be easily put into words. The term emphasizes the ability to translate internal experiences or abstract notions into spoken or written language. It implies clarity and precision in communication. For example, a well-articulated argument is sõnastatav. A complex emotion that is difficult to describe might be considered not fully sõnastatav. The word is rooted in the Estonian word "sõna," meaning "word." It highlights the power and potential of language to convey meaning and understanding.
