mõõtmeteks

Mõõtmeteks is an Estonian grammatical form: it is the translative plural of the noun mõõtmed, which roughly corresponds to dimensions or measurements. The translative case expresses a change of state or designation, often translated as “into …” or “as …” in English. Thus mõõtmeteks is used when something is described as, or transformed into, dimensions, especially in technical or academic language.

In practice, mõõtmeteks appears in discussions of spatial properties, geometric modeling, data structures, and other domains where dimensionality is relevant. It is most common in formal writing, manuals, and scientific texts, where authors specify the dimensionality of a space, object, or dataset. The form reflects both plurality and the translative sense of becoming or designation.

Grammatical notes: Mõõtmeteks is a plural translative form and agrees with numerals and modifiers just like other plural translative nouns in Estonian. The base term mõõtmed can be translated as “dimensions” or “measurements,” while the singular root mõõt denotes a single measure or dimension in some contexts.

See also: mõõtmed (dimensions/measurements), mõõt (measure), dimensioon or dimensioon (dimension) in loanwords, as well as related fields such as geometry, dimensional analysis, and data science.

Summary: Mõõtmeteks serves as a technical, grammatical form used to discuss or designate dimensionality in Estonian, primarily within mathematics, science, and engineering contexts.
