tähestikuliselt is an Estonian adverb that translates to "alphabetically" in English. It describes the act of arranging items, words, or names in the order of the alphabet. For example, if a list of people is organized tähestikuliselt, it means the names are sorted from A to Z. This is a common method for organizing information in dictionaries, bibliographies, and directories to facilitate easy retrieval and understanding. The concept of alphabetical order is based on the established sequence of letters within a particular alphabet, such as the Latin alphabet used in English and Estonian. Applying this adverb indicates a systematic and predictable arrangement, making it a fundamental principle in information management and organization.
