publikatsiooniks

Publikatsiooniks is an Estonian translative form of the noun publikatsioon, meaning publication. It is used to express transformation into a publication or the purpose of being published. In Estonian grammar, the translative case marks a change of state or function, so publikatsiooniks often translates as “for publication,” “as a publication,” or “to be published.”

Usage is common in academic, editorial, and publishing contexts. Phrases such as teks; tekst on valmis publikatsiooniks (the text is ready for publication) or dokument on koostatud publikatsiooniks (the document has been prepared for publication) illustrate its function. It can also appear with adjectives describing suitability for release, for example publikatsiooniks mõeldud materjal (material intended for publication).

Etymology reflects its connection to the broader international term for publication. The Estonian word publikatsioon is itself derived from the same root as the English “publication” and related forms in other European languages, tracing back to Latin publicatio. The translative form publikatsiooniks is a standard grammatical development in Estonian to express purpose or transformation relative to publication.

In summary, publikatsiooniks is the translative form of a noun meaning publication, used to denote something intended for publication or capable of becoming a publication, and is a common term in scholarly and editorial language.
