lisanduvatel

Lisanduvatel is an Estonian grammatical form that arises from the adjective lisanduv, meaning additive or supplementary. Lisanduv describes something that adds or supplements to a given set. The form lisanduvatel is the plural adessive case of the adjective, used with plural nouns to indicate a location or relation “on the additives” or “with the additives” in a sentence.

Morphology and formation: The base lisanduv comes from lisand (addition, supplement) combined with the adjectival suffix -uv. When the noun it modifies is plural and in the adessive case, the word takes the ending -atel, yielding lisanduvatel. This construction is primarily found in technical, culinary, and regulatory texts where multiple additives or additive ingredients are discussed.

Usage and context: Lisanduvatel is used to describe features of substances, ingredients, or elements that pertain to additives, especially when listing or discussing several additives together. It often appears in phrases that translate roughly to “on the additives” or “with the additives,” depending on the syntactic role in Estonian. The term is relatively specialized and most common in contexts such as product labeling, ingredient lists, or scientific descriptions of formulations.

Examples: In Estonian prose, one might encounter a formulation such as lisanduvatel koostisosadel, referring to the additive ingredients. In English-language summaries, this would correspond to discussions about the role or labeling of additive ingredients within a product or formulation. See also lisand, lisanduv, for related terms.
