matemaatilisel

Matemaatilisel is the adessive singular form of the Estonian adjective matemaatiline, and it is used to express relation to mathematics, or to indicate the manner or level described as mathematical. It functions as a grammatical form rather than a separate concept, and it appears in phrases where the relation to mathematics is central.

In usage, matemaatilisel is typically attached to a following noun or noun phrase in the adessive case to describe how something is done or the level at which it is considered. Common collocations include matemaatilisel viisil (in a mathematical manner) and matemaatilisel tasandil (on a mathematical level). The form is regular in grammar and can be combined with various nouns to convey precise mathematical context.

Etymology and taxonomy: the form is derived from the root matemaatiline (mathematical) and the Estonian adessive suffix -sel, yielding a word used in formal and academic language to specify mathematical aspects or approaches. It is not a standalone concept but a morphological variant of the adjective used for descriptive precision.

Examples:

- Probleemi lahendati matemaatilisel viisil, kasutades algebrat ja geomeetriat.

- Uurimus käsitles teooriat matemaatilisel tasandil, keskendudes definitsioonidele ja tõenditele.

See form is common in scientific and scholarly Estonian when the writer wants to pinpoint a mathematical character of methods, analyses, or discussions, without changing the fundamental concept of “mathematical.”
