ametlikum

Ametlikum is an Estonian adjective meaning "more official." It is the comparative form of the adjective "ametlik," which translates to "official." The suffix "-um" in Estonian is used to form comparative adjectives, indicating a greater degree of the quality described by the adjective. Therefore, "ametlikum" implies a higher level of formality, authority, or adherence to rules and regulations when compared to something that is simply "ametlik."

For example, one might describe a document as "ametlik" (official) and another as "ametlikum" (more official). This could mean the latter document carries greater weight, has been processed through more stringent procedures, or bears more significant seals or signatures. In everyday conversation, "ametlikum" is used to distinguish between varying degrees of formality or official status in various contexts, from bureaucratic procedures to social interactions. The concept is straightforward, directly comparing the level of officialdom between two or more entities or situations.
