Võimsast

Võimsast is an Estonian word that translates to "powerful" or "mighty" in English. It is the partitive plural form of the adjective "võimas". This grammatical form is used when referring to an indefinite quantity or a part of a group of powerful things or beings. For example, "mul on võimsast rahvast palju sõpru" could translate to "I have many friends from powerful people".

The root word "võimas" describes a state of possessing great strength, influence, or capability. It can be applied to a wide range of contexts, from physical power to abstract concepts. A strong storm might be described as "võimas torm", a successful person as "võimas inimene", or a significant historical event as "võimas sündmus".

The use of the partitive plural "võimsast" specifically indicates that the speaker is talking about some of the powerful entities, rather than all of them, or when the exact number is not specified. This nuance is common in Estonian grammar, where the partitive case distinguishes between definite and indefinite quantities. Therefore, "võimsast" emphasizes a portion or an unspecified collection of powerful elements.
