Taotlusel

Taotlusel is the adessive singular form of taotlus, a noun meaning "application" or "request" in Estonian. It is used to express that an action is taken on the basis of or at the request of a particular application. The form is common in formal and legal language, where the adessive case marks the basis or cause for a decision or measure.

As a grammatical form, taotlusel is formed from taotlus plus the adessive suffix -el. In use, it often appears in contexts describing actions carried out because of an application, such as decisions or procedures that are tied to the submitted request. Collocations and related expressions include taotlusel alusel ("on the basis of the application") and vastavalt taotlusele ("in accordance with the application").

Usage notes: taotlusel is typical in administrative, bureaucratic, and legal texts to indicate a link between an outcome and the underlying application. It helps specify the relationship between a measure, right, or document and the application that prompted it. In many cases, taotluse alusel provides a clearer or more explicit statement of basis, while taotlusel remains a concise relational form used within established phraseology.
