kahjustusteta

Kahjustusteta is an Estonian adjective/adverbial form meaning "without damage" or "undamaged." It is derived from the noun kahjustus ("damage") combined with a negative suffix that expresses absence. The term is used to describe persons, objects or situations that have not suffered harm, loss, or deterioration.

Kahjustusteta appears in both everyday and formal language. Common uses include accident reports, insurance contexts and everyday descriptions: for example, "Auto jäi kahjustusteta" ("The car remained undamaged") or "Pääsesime kahjustusteta" ("We escaped without injury"). It can modify nouns or function adverbially to indicate the condition in which an action occurred.

Grammatically, kahjustusteta is often used where English would use an adjective or an adverbial phrase. It can combine with verbs to form phrases that emphasize the absence of material or bodily harm. Synonymous or related Estonian expressions include ilma kahjustusteta and vigastusteta, which carry similar meanings in specific contexts.

Because it denotes a state of being unaffected, kahjustusteta is commonly encountered in safety, transportation, legal and consumer contexts, where accurate description of condition and liability matters.
