Tõenäosustel

Tõenäosustel is an Estonian grammatical form of the noun tõenäosus, meaning probability. It is used when referring to probabilities in plural or when probabilities are the topic of discussion in text. In scientific and technical writing, this form appears in phrases such as tõenäosustel põhinevad analüüsid (analyses based on probabilities) or tõenäosustel arvestavad mudelid (models that take probabilities into account).

The concept of probability in Estonian is expressed through related terms such as tõenäosus (probability), tõenäosusteooria (probability theory), and statistika (statistics). Tõenäosustel itself is not a separate field or discipline; rather, it is a grammatical form used to discuss multiple probabilities within sentences, showing how Estonian marks probabilistic context through inflection.

Usage of tõenäosustel is common in areas like risk assessment, forecasting, data analysis, and decision making, where statements often refer to several probabilistic outcomes or scenarios. For example, researchers might compare results “tõenäosustel erinevad” (vary by probabilities) or describe models that operate “tõenäosustel põhinevalt” (based on probabilities). The form thus helps convey nuanced probabilistic meaning without introducing new vocabulary beyond the base word tõenäosus.

See also: tõenäosusteooria, statistika, probability. In Estonian writing, כמובן the broader concept remains probability theory and statistics, with tõenäosustel serving as a context-specific inflected expression within those domains.
