valijaid

Valijaid is the Estonian plural form used to refer to multiple pieces of travel luggage, such as suitcases or bags. It is the partitive/genitive plural of the noun valija, while the nominative plural is valijad. The form valijaid commonly appears in sentences that describe an unspecified quantity or when numbers are involved, for example, kolm valijaid (three suitcases).

In use, valija refers to a portable container carried while traveling or shipping belongings. The term is common in everyday speech, travel writing, airline and baggage contexts, and retail descriptions of luggage products. Valijaid emphasizes quantity without specifying a definite count, which makes it suitable for news, logistics, or shopping discussions about luggage.

Examples:

- Ma ostsin kaks valijaid. (I bought two suitcases.)

- Lennujaamas oli palju valijaid. (There were many suitcases at the airport.)

Notes:

- The nominative plural form is valijad, while valijaid is used in partitive/genitive constructions.

- Valija is distinct from names or other uses of similar-sounding terms; in typical Estonian usage, valija refers specifically to a luggage item rather than to people.
