Teenindamisele

Teenindamisele is an Estonian grammatical form derived from the noun teenindamine, meaning service or servicing. It functions as the allative form, formed by adding the allative suffix -le to the stem teenindamise-, and it signals direction toward service or toward the domain of service.

In usage, teenindamisele is used to indicate movement or orientation toward service activities, the service sector, or a service-related target in a sentence. It is a case form rather than a standalone word, and it can appear in formal or administrative texts when specifying the direction of actions, resources, or attention.

As with other Estonian allatives, teenindamisele answers the question where to? and is contrasted with the adessive -l (on/at) or elative -lt (from). The form is encountered mainly in linguistic descriptions, policy documents, and descriptions of service provision contexts where the focus is on service as a domain.
