avalikustatakse

Avalikustatakse is Estonian a verb form meaning “is made public” or “is disclosed.” It represents the present tense passive construction of the verb avalikustama, which means to publicize, disclose or release information to the public. The form is used when the subject performing the action is unknown, general, or when the emphasis is on the act of public disclosure rather than on who does it.

In usage, avalikustatakse appears in formal or official contexts such as government releases, media statements, scientific or organizational reports, and press communications. It signals that information has been shared with the public or made accessible through an official channel. The construction is common in headlines and public notices, where a neutral, impersonal tone is desired.

Related forms include avalikustamine (the act of publicizing or release of information), avalikustaja (a person or entity that publicizes), and avalikustatud (publicized). The term sits alongside other Estonian expressions for transparency and disclosure, particularly in legal, administrative, and research settings.

Examples:

- Uuringu tulemused avalikustatakse täna. (The study results are released today.)

- Rahandusministeerium teatas, et süvastruktuuri andmed avalikustatakse lähiajal. (The Ministry of Finance announced that the data will be made public soon.)

Overall, avalikustatakse is a standard, neutral linguistic tool for indicating that information has been or will be disclosed to the public.
