Töödeid

Töödeid is an Estonian term that can be encountered in formal, historical, or archival texts to refer to tasks, works, or duties that are to be performed as part of a larger project or activity. In contemporary everyday Estonian, the form is uncommon, and speakers typically use other inflections of the noun töö (work, task) such as töö, tööd, or tööde.

Etymology and form: The concept derives from the base noun töö (work). Estonian grammar provides several plural and case forms for töö, with стандарт forms like tööde (genitive plural) and tööd (partitive or accusative plural). The specific form töödeid is less common in modern standard language and is more likely to appear in older texts, dialectal usage, or stylistic writing. Its exact role can vary by context, and it is not universally treated as a standard inflection in contemporary language references.

Meaning and usage: Töödeid functions as a label for a set or collection of tasks to be completed, often within the framework of a project, contract, or organizational plan. In practice, writers would more commonly refer to the individual tasks as tööd or to the set as tööde (the works) or tööde nimekiri (list of tasks). When encountered, töödeid tends to carry a formal or archival tone, signaling obligations, duties, or activities that constitute the scope of work.

See also: töö, tööd, tööde, tööjõud, projektijuhtimine, tööleping.

Notes: Töödeid is not a widely used everyday form in modern standard Estonian; its appearance is mainly in specialized, historical, or stylistic contexts.
