hinnetele

Hinnetele is the plural allative form of the Estonian noun hind, meaning “to the prices.” It is used to indicate direction toward multiple prices or a set of prices, as opposed to the singular allative hindele (“to the price”). The allative case in Estonian marks direction toward a destination or reference point, including abstract ones like a price list.

Formation and usage notes: In Estonian, the plural allative is formed by adding the suffix -etele to the noun stem, yielding hinnetele from hind. The singular allative is hindele. Hinnetele tends to appear in formal or technical texts, particularly in pricing contexts such as price lists, catalog references, or financial documentation where attention is directed toward the prices as a group.

Contexts: Hinnetele is most commonly encountered in contexts that discuss or reference multiple prices—for example, in pricing documents, tables, or reports that consolidate pricing information. Its use helps specify that the discussion or action relates specifically to the set of prices rather than to a single price.
