komprimeerib

Komprimeerib is an Estonian verb form meaning “compresses.” It is the third-person singular present tense of the verb komprimeerima, which denotes reducing size or volume by encoding, packaging, or applying pressure. The term is used in both everyday language and technical contexts, most often in relation to data and digital files, but it can also refer to physical compression in scientific or engineering discussions.

In computing, komprimeerib describes the act of creating a compressed version of data or files, typically to save space or speed up transmission. This may involve archive formats such as ZIP, gzip, or 7z. The related noun forms include komprimeerimine (compression) and komprimeerija (compressor). The infinitive form is komprimeerida; past tense is komprimeeris, and other conjugations follow standard Estonian verb patterns.

Usage notes: while komprimeerima is common in technical contexts, other terms like tihendama or tihendamine are frequently used for data compression in more general or consumer-oriented language. In specialized documentation or software interfaces, both komprimeerima and tihendama may appear depending on tone and audience.

Examples:

- Ta komprimeerib faili enne saatmist. (She compresses the file before sending it.)

- Me komprimeerime need andmed, et ruumi säästa. (We compress these data to save space.)

- Faili komprimeerimine võib vähendada salvestusruumi märkimisväärselt.

See also: tihendamine, arhiveerimine, andmete tihendamine, ZIP, gzip, 7z. Komprimeerib as a verb form is a standard part of Estonian technical and everyday vocabulary related to reducing data or material size.
