Täitumise

Täitumise is the genitive singular form of täitumine, an Estonian noun that denotes the process or state of becoming full or complete. Broadly, täitumine covers physical fullness (a container’s täitumine), attainment or fulfillment (fulfilling requirements), and the completion of a task or plan. The word is formed from the verb täita “to fill” with a nominalizing suffix, yielding a concept of filling or becoming full.

In practical use, täitumise can describe how full something is or how far a process has progressed toward completion. For example, in logistics one might refer to the täitumise level of a tank or the täitumise rate of a storage facility. In planning or project management, it can indicate the degree to which objectives have been achieved. In a broader sense, täitumine can also be used metaphorically to discuss personal fulfillment or the realization of goals, depending on context.

Grammatically, täitumise appears in phrases that require the genitive case, such as täitumise kontroll (control of filling), täitumise kiirus (rate of filling), or täitumise kestus (duration of filling). A closely related term is täitmine, which more directly denotes the act of filling something, while tühjenemine refers to the opposite process of emptying.

See also terms related to fullness and completion include täitmine and tühjenemine, as well as phrases describing capacity, saturation, and fulfillment in various domains.
