majanduslike

Majanduslike is an Estonian adjective form used to describe things related to the economy. It derives from majandus (economy) plus the suffix -lik, which yields the meaning “economic” or “economic-related.” In Estonian, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number and case. The form majanduslike appears when the target noun is plural and in the genitive or partitive cases, for example majanduslike näitajate (economic indicators), majanduslike reformide (economic reforms), or majanduslike riskide hindamine (assessment of economic risks). The usage is common in economics, statistics, policy, journalism, and business writing.

Majanduslike marks the economic character of the modified noun and often contrasts with other attributive adjectives that specify different domains, such as sotsiaal-, poliitiline-, or tehnoloogiline-. The base form is majanduslik, and majanduslike is one of its inflected forms used in plural contexts. In standard Estonian, majanduslike is typically found in formal or technical prose rather than casual speech. See also majandus, majanduslik olukord, and majandusteadus.
