tõlgeteni

tõlgeteni is an Estonian word that translates to "to the translations" or "until the translations" in English. It is a grammatical form, specifically the illative case of the noun "tõlge," which means "translation." The illative case in Estonian indicates movement into or towards something. Therefore, "tõlgeteni" signifies a destination or a point reached in relation to translations.

This phrase might appear in contexts discussing the process of translation, such as a project that is ongoing until all its parts have been translated, or a journey through various translated works. For instance, one might say a book is being read "tõlgeteni," meaning the reader is engaging with it up to the point where translated sections begin, or perhaps until the entire text is available in translation. It can also refer to the anticipation of translations, like waiting "tõlgeteni" for a particular document or work to be made accessible in a desired language. The specific meaning is highly dependent on the surrounding sentence structure and the overall context in which it is used.
