parooliga

Parooliga is an Estonian phrase formed from the noun parool, meaning password, and the comitative suffix -ga, which translates to “with.” The term literally means “with a password” and is used to describe objects, systems, or actions that require or are protected by a password.

Usage and meaning

Parooliga is used to indicate that access, protection, or security relies on a password. It functions as an adjective or adverbial modifier in sentences, often describing a resource as password-protected or implying the use of a password to gain entry. In formal or technical writing, it is common to pair the phrase with a noun or a passive construction to convey password-based security.

Examples

Fail on parooliga kaitstud translates to “The file is password-protected.” Konto on parooliga kaitstud means “The account is password-protected.” A concise usage could be Sissepääs parooliga, meaning “Access with a password” or “Login with a password,” depending on context.

Origin and grammar

The -ga suffix in Estonian marks accompaniment or instrument, so parooliga grammatically expresses the idea of something being accompanied by or dependent on a password. The phrase is productive in standard Estonian and appears across technical, administrative, and everyday security discussions.

Relation to related terms

Paroolita is the opposite form, meaning “without a password.” Related concepts include autentimine (authentication) and ligipääsukontroll (access control), which frequently occur in texts that also use parooliga to describe password-related security features.
