nihutatakse

Nihutatakse is an Estonian word that translates to "is moved" or "is being moved." It is the passive present tense form of the verb "nihutama," which means to move, shift, or push. The word is used in various contexts to describe an object or person being relocated or displaced.

For example, one might say "auto nihutatakse parkimiskohalt," meaning "the car is being moved from the parking spot." Similarly, "mööbel nihutatakse teise tuppa" translates to "the furniture is being moved to another room." The word emphasizes the action of moving happening to the subject, rather than the subject performing the action.

The root of the word, "nihutama," implies a gradual or deliberate movement, often involving pushing or sliding. Therefore, "nihutatakse" conveys a sense of gentle or controlled relocation. It is a common verb in everyday Estonian conversation and writing, used to describe a wide range of moving actions. The precise meaning can sometimes be inferred from the surrounding context, but the core idea remains that of something being shifted from one position to another.
