systemaatilise

Systemaatiline is an Estonian adjective meaning systematic or methodical. It is used to describe things that are organized according to a coherent system, such as approaches, classifications, or processes. In scholarly and professional writing, systemaatiline often signals a structured, thorough, and orderly character of the subject being discussed.

In grammar, systemaatiline forms like other Estonian adjectives and agrees with the noun it modifies in case, number, and definiteness. The nominative singular form is systemaatiline. In the genitive singular it appears as systemaatilise, for example in phrases like systemaatilise lähenemise (of the systematic approach). The partitive singular form is systemaatilist. In plural, the nominative plural is systemaatilised, and the genitive plural is systemaatiliste. These inflections allow the adjective to integrate smoothly into sentences across different syntactic roles.

Common contexts for systemaatilise include academic discourse on methodology, research design, and theoretical frameworks. It is frequently paired with nouns such as lähenemine (approach), meetod (method), or klassifikatsioon (classification) to convey a deliberately organized or comprehensive stance.
