Täpsustustele

Täpsustustele is the allative plural form of the Estonian noun täpsustus, meaning clarifications or specifications. It is used to refer to multiple clarifications that are being addressed, requested, or pointed to in discourse. In English terms, it corresponds to “to the clarifications” or “for the clarifications.”

Grammatically, täpsustus has several cases: nominative täpsustus (clarification), genitive täpsustuse/täpsustuste (of the clarification/of the clarifications), and the allative plural täpsustustele (to the clarifications). The allative case expresses direction toward something, such as the recipient or target of an action, and is common in formal or written Estonian when referring to documents, questions, or items that require attention.

Usage and context

Täpsustustele appears mainly in formal or bureaucratic writing, such as reports, protocols, tenders, or academic texts, when one points to the clarifications that should be considered, addressed, or referenced. It is less common in everyday conversation, where speakers may choose simpler constructions like täpsustused (the clarifications) or refer to each clarification individually.
