tokeniteks

Tokeniteks is an Estonian term that appears as the translative case of the borrowed English noun token. In everyday and technical usage, it marks a transformation into tokens or treats something as tokens, rather than naming a standalone technology. The meaning depends on context, and it may occur in discussions of data privacy, tokenization, or blockchain token usage.

Linguistic form and function: In Estonian grammar, tokeniteks is formed by adding the translative suffix -iteks to token, indicating direction or result (into tokens / as tokens). Common phrases include "tokeniteks muutmine" (conversion into tokens) and "tokeniteks kasutamine" (use as tokens).

Technological context: In texts about tokenization and distributed ledgers, tokeniteks often appears as part of phrases translating or describing concepts such as tokenization, digital tokens, and token-based access. It does not denote a separate standard; rather, it is a grammatical form used to express related ideas in Estonian.
