Tagajärjedeks

Tagajärjedeks is an Estonian word that translates to "as consequences" or "in the consequences" in English. It is a grammatical form of the word "tagajärg," which means "consequence" or "result." The suffix "-deks" indicates a purpose or a state of being, so "tagajärgedeks" essentially signifies something that exists or is done for the sake of, or in light of, the consequences.

This term is often used in contexts where actions or decisions are made with a specific outcome in mind, or when an event is understood as a direct result of preceding circumstances. For example, one might say that certain measures were taken "tagajärgedeks" of a previous failure, meaning those measures were implemented as a response to prevent similar failures in the future. It highlights the causal link between events and their subsequent effects.

The usage of "tagajärgedeks" can be found in both formal and informal Estonian. It emphasizes the importance of considering the outcomes of actions and understanding how past events shape the present and future. It is a functional word that helps to articulate the relationship between cause and effect within the Estonian language.
