grammatiliseks

Grammatiliseks is a term originating from Estonian grammar. It describes a specific grammatical case, the genitive-terminative. This case is used to express a relation of belonging, possession, or origin, similar to the English possessive ('s) or the preposition "of." However, it can also indicate a destination or a change of state, functioning in a way that combines elements of the genitive and allative cases found in other languages. The grammatiliseks case is typically formed by adding specific suffixes to the noun stem. Its usage is crucial for understanding the nuances of possession, origin, and direction within Estonian sentences. While its exact form and function can be complex, it is a vital component of the Estonian case system.
