tõenäosusena

Tõenäosusena is an Estonian word that translates to "as a probability" or "as a likelihood" in English. It is used to describe a situation or outcome that is not certain but has a certain degree of chance associated with it. The term is often employed in discussions related to statistics, forecasting, or assessing the likelihood of future events.

For example, one might say that a particular candidate is "tõenäosusena" likely to win an election, implying that while victory is not guaranteed, there are significant factors pointing towards that outcome. Similarly, in scientific contexts, researchers might refer to a hypothesis being true "tõenäosusena," indicating that the available evidence suggests it is plausible, but further confirmation is needed. The word emphasizes the probabilistic nature of an event rather than a definitive statement of fact. It acknowledges uncertainty while still offering an indication of how likely something is to occur.
