mõõdad

Mõõdad is an Estonian word that translates to "you measure" in English. It is the second-person singular present indicative form of the verb "mõõtma," which means "to measure." The verb "mõõtma" is used in a variety of contexts, referring to the act of determining the size, quantity, or degree of something. This can range from physical measurements like length or weight to more abstract concepts such as time or distance.

The word "mõõdad" is commonly used in everyday conversation and writing in Estonia. For example, one might say "Sa mõõdad riiet" which means "You are measuring fabric." In a more technical context, it could appear in instructions such as "Kui mõõdad pikkust, kasuta mõõdulinti" meaning "If you measure length, use a measuring tape." The grammatical structure of Estonian involves specific verb conjugations to indicate person and number, and "mõõdad" is the direct form used when addressing a single person. Understanding this conjugation is key to comprehending Estonian verbs and their usage.
