reguleerivatelt

Reguleerivatelt is an Estonian term used in regulatory and legal language to indicate origin from regulators or regulatory authorities. It is commonly found in official texts, policy materials, and legal drafting where the source of information or guidance matters.

Etymology and form: The form reguleerivatelt is derived from the verb reguleerida (to regulate) and the associated participial/nominal forms, combined with the elative plural suffix -lt, which marks origin or source. In use, it functions as a source marker, pointing to statements, guidelines, or notices issued by regulatory bodies rather than to the content of the regulation itself.

Usage: Reguleerivatelt is used to attribute authority to a document, instruction, or communication. It helps readers identify that the material comes from a regulator rather than from another party such as a legislative body, industry group, or public consultation. In practice, it appears in phrases such as reguleerivatelt pärit teated (notices from regulators) or reguleerivatelt antud juhised (instructions issued by regulators).

Examples:

- Reguleerivatelt antud juhised kehtivad alates järgmisest nädalast.

- Reguleerivatelt pärit teated selgitavad uut nõuete täitmise korda.

See also: reguleerija, reguleerimine, elatiiv (grammatiline märksõna elatiivse käändevormi kohta).

Note: Reguleerivatelt is a niche term tied to Estonian regulatory language; its primary function is to indicate provenance of information, not to modify the substantive content of regulations themselves.
