Vajutasime

Vajutasime is an Estonian verb form meaning "we pressed" or "we pushed." It is the first-person plural past tense of the verb vajutama, which means to press, push, or depress something, such as a button or a lever. The word comes from the verb’s root vajuta- and is used in everyday language to describe a completed action in the past.

The verb vajutada belongs to the regular -ta/-tta class in Estonian conjugation. The infinitive is vajutada, the present tense is vajutame, and the past tense form for “we” is vajutasime. The past participle is vajutatud, used in compound tenses and as an adjective meaning “pressed.” Other person forms follow the standard Estonian verb endings, for example vajutasid (you pressed / they pressed) and vajutas (he/she pressed).

Usage and examples: vajutasime is employed whenever a group performed a pressing action in the past. For instance: Me vajutasime nuppu ja aken avanes. (We pressed the button, and the window opened.) The word is commonly used in contexts involving physical buttons, keys, levers, or any action of applying pressure.

Related terms include vajutada (to press) and vajutus (the act of pressing or a press/pressing event). The concept can be extended metaphorically, though the primary sense remains physical pressing. In translation, vajutasime corresponds to “we pressed.”
