talletamiseks

Talletamiseks is an Estonian word form derived from the verb talletama, which means to store, record, or archive. It is a gerund-like form used to indicate purpose, roughly translating to “for storage” or “for recording” in English. The expression is commonly found in contexts where the intended use of information, objects, or data is storage or archiving.

Usage and examples

In Estonian sentences talletamiseks appears to express purpose. For example: “Andmete talletamiseks peab järgima kehtivaid andmekaitse- ja andmeturbe nõudeid” means “For data storage one must follow the applicable data protection and security requirements.” Another example is “Fotode talletamiseks kasutatakse pilvepõhist talletust,” meaning “Cloud-based storage is used for storing photos.” The form is also used in official or technical texts to specify that an action is performed for storage or archiving.

Grammar and etymology

Talletamiseks is formed from talletama plus the suffix -miseks, which marks purpose and is used to create phrases that denote the intended use of something. This parallels other Estonian purpose forms such as kasutamiseks (for use) or arhiivimiseks (for archiving).
