paigaldamist

Paigaldamist is an Estonian noun that denotes the act or process of installing something. It is the partitive singular form of the noun paigaldamine, which is derived from the verb paigaldama, meaning to install. The term is used to refer to installation as a concept, activity, or service, and appears in both everyday language and more formal technical or contractual contexts.

In use, paigaldamist appears when the installation activity is treated as an indefinite amount or as the object of a verb, such as phrases describing installation work or the need for installation. It is common in contexts involving hardware, software, construction, or furniture assembly, where the focus is on the process of putting components in place rather than on the finished setup.

Declension and related forms: the base form is paigaldamine (the installation). The genitive singular is paigaldamise, while the partitive singular is paigaldamist. Plural forms include paigaldamised (nominative plural) and paigaldamisi (partitive plural). Related terms include paigaldus (installation or setup) and paigaldamine (the act of installing), which are used in slightly different nuances or syntactic contexts.
