külgvaheli

Külgvaheli is an Estonian term that generally refers to a sideways or lateral gap. This concept can manifest in various contexts. In a physical sense, it might describe the space between two objects placed side by side, such as the gap between two houses or two parked cars. It can also relate to the distance between the edges of two parallel surfaces or lines.

In a more abstract or figurative sense, külgvaheli can denote a separation or divergence in opinions, approaches, or development. For instance, if two projects are progressing at different speeds or in different directions, one might say they have a külgvaheli. This implies a lack of alignment or a noticeable difference in their trajectory. The term can also be used to describe a pause or an interruption in a continuous process, a moment where things are momentarily set aside or are not directly in contact. In some contexts, it might even imply a slight deviation or a side step from a main path or objective. The precise meaning is often dependent on the surrounding vocabulary and the overall situation being described.
