Ventileeritavas

Ventileeritavas is Estonian grammar: a form of the adjective-participle ventileeritav, derived from the verb ventileerida (to ventilate). It functions as an inessive singular form, used to describe a location or state related to ventilation. In everyday and technical texts, ventileeritavas denotes “in the ventilated (space)” or “in a space that is being ventilated” and is common in architectural, safety, and building-automation contexts.

Etymology and usage

The base is ventileerida, with ventileeritav meaning “ventilatable” or “that can be ventilated” and ventileeritav as the participial stem. The form ventileeritavas specifically marks the inessive case for singular nouns, e.g., ventileeritavas ruumis = in a ventilated room. This contrasts with ventileeritud ruum (a room that has been ventilated) and ventileeritav ruum (a room that can be ventilated). The choice reflects subtle distinctions between current state and potential capability, which are important in planning, compliance, and technical descriptions.
