käändingutega

Kääningutega is an Estonian term that refers to a process of grammatical inflection. In Estonian grammar, nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and numerals can change their form to indicate their grammatical function in a sentence. This process is known as kääningutega, or declension. There are numerous cases in Estonian, each with its own specific ending or set of endings that are added to the stem of a word. These cases help to define the relationship between different parts of a sentence, such as subject, object, possession, location, and direction. For example, the nominative case is the basic form of a word, while the genitive case indicates possession. The partitive case is used to express an incomplete quantity or an object of a verb that is not fully affected. Other cases include the illative, inessive, elative, allative, adessive, ablative, translative, and terminative. The correct use of kääningutega is crucial for constructing grammatically correct and understandable sentences in Estonian. Understanding and mastering these inflectional changes is a fundamental aspect of learning the Estonian language.
