jõukam

Jõukam is an Estonian adjective that translates to "wealthier," "richer," or "more affluent." It is the comparative form of the adjective "jõukas," which means "wealthy" or "rich." The word is used to describe individuals, families, or entities that possess a greater amount of financial resources or material possessions compared to others. It implies a higher socioeconomic status and a greater capacity for spending or investment.

The term "jõukam" can be applied in various contexts, from describing the economic disparity between individuals within a community to comparing the financial standing of different nations. For instance, one might say that a particular region has become "jõukam" over time due to economic development, or that certain households are "jõukam" than their neighbors. The concept of being "jõukam" is often associated with increased opportunities, access to better services, and a generally higher standard of living. However, the definition and perception of what constitutes "jõukam" can vary depending on cultural, social, and economic factors. It is a relative term, always understood in comparison to a baseline or another point of reference.
