Täisvärvilise

Täisvärvilise is the genitive singular form of the Estonian adjective täisvärviline, meaning full-color or in full color. The base word describes something that displays a complete spectrum of colours, as opposed to grayscale or limited color palettes. In ordinary use, täisvärviline refers to images, prints, and visual media that use many colours rather than a single hue.

In grammatical terms, täisvärvilise is the form used with a following noun in the genitive case, for example täisvärvilise pildi (a full-color image). The corresponding nominative is täisvärviline pilt, and plural forms include täisvärvilised pildid. The word participates in standard Estonian adjective inflection, without a separate hyphenation in typical usage.

Common contexts for the term include printing, publishing, photography, film, and digital media. It is used in product descriptions, captions, and editorial copy to indicate that an item or work is rendered in the full range of colours. The opposite concept is mustvalge or mustvalge-versioon, meaning black-and-white or grayscale. Täisvärviline often implies a richer or more saturated colour presentation, though the exact palette depends on the medium and production process.

Etymology is straightforward: täis (full) combines with värviline (colourful) to form the adjective, which is then inflected for grammatical case as täisvärvilise, täisvärvilist, täisvärviliseid, and so on.
