põhitingimustega

Põhitingimustega on Estonian term formed from põhitingimused (essential terms or basic conditions) with the comitative suffix -ga, meaning with the basic terms. It is a formal, legalistic construction commonly found in contracts, policy documents and other professional texts. The form indicates a relation to the central, foundational terms that govern an agreement, arrangement or set of rules.

In practice, põhitingimustega is used to describe actions, obligations or arrangements that are tied to these fundamental terms. It often appears in phrases such as põhitingimustega kokkulepitud hinnad (prices agreed under the basic terms), põhitingimustega kehtestatud piirangud (restrictions established by the basic terms), or toimimine põhitingimustega kokkulepitud tingimuste raames (operating within the terms agreed under the basic terms). The expression emphasizes adherence to or reference to the essential terms.

Stylistically, põhitingimustega is typical of formal or legal language. It is less common in everyday speech, where more direct constructions such as põhitingimustel or alusel may be preferred to express “on the basis of” or “in accordance with.” Related terms include põhitingimused (the basic terms themselves) and phrases like kehtestatud põhitingimuste raames (within the framework of the established basic terms).

Overall, põhitingimustega serves to anchor statements to the foundational terms of an agreement, clarifying that certain provisions, prices, limits or actions operate in relation to those essential conditions.
