anatoomiliselt

Anatoomiliselt is the Estonian adverb meaning in anatomical terms or anatomically. It is used mainly in scientific, medical, and educational contexts to describe features, processes, or observations that pertain to anatomy.

The term is formed from the adjective anatoomiline (anatomical) with an Estonian adverbial suffix, making it a standard adverb in formal language. As an adverb, it typically modifies verbs or adjectives when the statement concerns anatomical aspects. It can appear in phrases such as anatoomiliselt proportsionaalne, anatoomiliselt lokaliseeritud, or anatoomiliselt korrektne, depending on the context.

- The term contrasts with non-anatomical descriptions and is often grouped with other domain-specific adverbs such as füsioloogiliselt (physiologically) or morfoloogiliselt (morphologically).
