läbisõnaks

Lämbisõnaks is an Estonian word that translates to "for passage" or "as a toll" in English. It refers to a payment or a form of compensation that is given to gain permission to pass through a certain area, cross a boundary, or use a facility. Historically, this could manifest as a physical toll collected at a bridge, a gate, or a border crossing.

The concept of läbisõnaks is not limited to monetary transactions. It can also involve providing a service, offering a gift, or fulfilling a specific condition in exchange for the right to proceed. In a broader sense, it can describe any requirement that must be met to overcome an obstacle or gain access to something.

In modern contexts, läbisõnaks might be seen in situations like paying a fee for using a toll road, a parking garage, or accessing a private property. It can also extend to more abstract ideas, such as the effort or dedication required to achieve a goal or gain entry into a specific group or profession. The term implies a necessary cost or contribution for progression.
