aastaajati
Aastaajati is a term commonly used in Estonian to mean "yearly" or "year by year." It describes a process or occurrence that happens at regular intervals of one year. This can refer to annual events, such as yearly festivals or recurring financial reports, or to a gradual change that is observed over time in increments of a year. For example, one might discuss the annual increase in temperature or the year-by-year growth of a plant. The term emphasizes the temporal aspect of these changes or events, highlighting their consistent occurrence within a twelve-month cycle. It is a straightforward adverbial phrase that indicates frequency and periodicity.
