Võmalike

Võmalike is a term used in Estonian to describe something that is possible, feasible, or achievable. It conveys the idea that a particular action, outcome, or situation is not impossible and has a reasonable chance of occurring or being brought about. The word stems from the Estonian verb "võimalik" which means "to be possible" or "to have the ability."

The concept of võmalike is frequently encountered in discussions related to planning, decision-making, and problem-solving. When something is deemed võmalike, it suggests that the necessary conditions, resources, or capabilities are in place, or can be made to be in place, to allow for its realization. This contrasts with actions or outcomes that are considered impossible, unrealistic, or beyond current capabilities.

In practical terms, assessing whether something is võmalike involves evaluating various factors such as available time, finances, expertise, and potential obstacles. For instance, a project might be considered võmalike if the team has the required skills and the budget is sufficient, even if it presents challenges. Conversely, a project that demands resources far beyond what is available would not be considered võmalike. The term encourages a pragmatic approach, focusing on what can realistically be accomplished rather than dwelling on theoretical impossibilities.
