translatsioonilisele

Translatsioonilisele is the allative singular form of the Estonian adjective translatsiooniline, which means relating to translation or translational. The base form translatsiooniline is used to describe something connected with translation in general, for example in biology (translation of genetic information into proteins) or linguistics (translation-related activities). The allative form translatsioonilisele is used when qualifying a noun in the allative case, indicating direction toward the translational aspect or level.

Morphology and usage

In Estonian, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number, case, and gender. The allative singular ending -le is attached to the stem translatsioonilisel/ translatsiooniline depending on the base form, resulting in translatsioonilisele to precede a noun in the allative case, such as translatsioonilisele tasemele (to the translational level). This form is not a separate lexical entry; it is an inflected form used within phrases.

Common contexts

Translatsioonilisele is encountered in scientific and technical Estonian to specify scope at the translational level, for example in discussions of translatsioonilisele tasemele keskenduvad regulatsioonimehhanismid (regulatory mechanisms focused on the translational level) or translatsioonilisele protsessile viitavad kirjeldused (descriptions referring to the translational process).

Etymology

Derived from translatsioon (translation) with the adjective-forming suffix -iline, plus the allative case ending -le for the noun phrase.
