urbanistlikest

Urbanistlikest is an Estonian inflected form of the adjective urbanistlik, meaning urbanistic or relating to urbanism. It appears in plural case forms and functions as a modifier with nouns in the genitive or partitive, for example urbanistlikest ideedest ("from urbanistic ideas") or urbanistlikest plaanidest ("from urbanistic plans"). The form signals that the described nouns pertain to urbanism, city planning, or urban design.

Etymology and grammar: Urbanistlik is derived from the concept of urbanism, with the suffix -lik creating an adjective meaning “pertaining to.” The ending -est marks a plural genitive or partitive case in Estonian, so urbanistlikest is used when the noun it modifes is in one of these cases and the speaker refers to multiple urbanistic elements.

Usage: In formal and technical Estonian, urbanistlikest is used to discuss multiple urbanistic concepts or elements without naming the noun explicitly, or when the noun is understood from context. It frequently appears in academic texts, planning documents, or policy discussions related to city development, architecture, and spatial design.

Examples (phrases): urbanistlikest ideedest, urbanistlikest plaanidest, urbanistlikest põhimõtetest. These phrases illustrate how the adjective combines with nouns in the genitive or partitive to convey relation to urbanism.
