analüüsitakse

Analüüsitakse is Estonian for “is analyzed” or “is being analyzed.” It is the present passive form of the verb analüüsima (to analyze) and is used when the actor performing the analysis is unknown, general, or not stated. The form allows writers to focus on the action or process rather than on who performs it, which is common in scientific, methodological, and formal texts.

Grammatically, analüüsitakse is formed by adding the passive suffix -takse to the verb stem analüüs-. It functions as a predicate in a clause and does not specify a subject. The agent can be omitted or introduced with a phrase such as “mitte selle isik/organisatsioon poolt” (by no one in particular) depending on context. In Estonian, the same form can be used for both singular and plural subjects in an indefinite sense, making it versatile for general statements.

Usage and style notes: analüüsitakse appears frequently in academic writing, reports, and descriptions of procedures, where it is appropriate to present results or steps as processes. It can be used with a range of modifiers and complements, for example: “Andmed analüüsitakse statistiliste meetoditega” (Data are analyzed with statistical methods) or “Otsused analüüsitakse kriitiliselt” (Decisions are analyzed critically). For past tense, the corresponding form is analüüsiti (it was analyzed).

Related forms include the active infinitive analüüsima and the passive past analüüsiti; together they cover common analytical statements in Estonian.
