vastuvõtvad

Vastuvõtvad is an Estonian term that translates to "receptive" or "reception" in English. It generally refers to the act of receiving, accepting, or welcoming something or someone. The concept can be applied in various contexts, from the physical act of receiving an object to the more abstract idea of being open to new ideas or experiences.

In social interactions, vastuvõtvad signifies a willingness to engage with others, listen to their perspectives, and make them feel welcome. A warm and vastuvõtvad host, for example, creates a comfortable atmosphere for guests. This extends to cultural contexts, where a society might be described as vastuvõtvad towards newcomers or different traditions.

The term can also be used in a more technical or scientific sense. For instance, a material might be vastuvõtvad to certain stimuli, meaning it readily responds or absorbs them. In a biological context, a cell could be vastuvõtvad to a signal, indicating its ability to receive and process that information. The core meaning remains consistent: a state or action of receiving or accepting.
