põhikirjelduses

Põhikirjelduses is the Estonian locative form of the noun põhikirjeldus, meaning the core description or description in a charter. The term is used primarily in formal and legal contexts to indicate that a matter is described in the main charter or in the document section that defines an organization’s structure, aims, governance, or legal status.

Etymology and grammar: Põhikirjeldus combines põhik- (core, main) with kirjeldus (description). In the sentence, põhikirjelduses functions as the inessive case, meaning “in the main description” or “in the charter description.” It is often contrasted with the noun forms grunnlikk, such as põhikirjeldus (the description itself) or põhikiri (the charter).

Usage: The phrase is used in legal, administrative, and organizational texts to anchor statements to the charter. It commonly introduces provisions or facts that are described in the charter. For example, a clause might read: Põhikirjelduses sätestatud õigused kuuluvad osanikele or Põhikirjelduses märgitud eesmärk on hariduse edendamine. This usage helps ensure that the document’s governance and rules are traced back to the formal charter.

Examples:

- Põhikirjelduses märgitud andmed on värskendatud vastavalt uuele juhatusele.

- Põhikirjelduses sätestatud eesmärk on ettevõtte pikaajaline arendamine.

See also: põhikirjeldus, põhikiri, juridiline keel.

Põhikirjelduses thus serves as a stylistic and legal reference point indicating that a particular matter is described within the charter’s main description.
