ülekandakse

Ülekandakse isse Estonian verb form meaning “is transferred” or “are transferred.” It is the present tense passive form of the verb ülekandma, which means to transfer, forward, or relay. The form is used when the agent performing the transfer is unspecified, unknown, or irrelevant, a common feature in formal and administrative language.

Etymology and meanings: The verb ülekandma combines üle- (over, across) with kandma (to carry). The related noun ülekandmine denotes a transfer or transmission. The passive form ülekandakse follows Estonian passive verb patterns and is used to describe actions where the focus is on the event of the transfer rather than who performs it.

Usage and contexts: Ülekandakse appears across several domains, including finance, information technology, and logistics. In banking or payments, it can describe money being sent from one account to another. In IT or data contexts, it can refer to data or information being transmitted. In logistics and operations, it may describe goods or requests being forwarded to the next stage.

Grammatical notes: Ülekandakse is the third-person singular present passive form, suitable for clauses with an indefinite or generalized subject. It can accompany plural or singular subjects depending on the sentence, since Estonian passive verbs do not always mark number separately in the surface form.

Examples:

- Makse ülekandakse automaatselt iga tunni järel. (A payment is transferred automatically every hour.)

- Andmed ülekandakse turvaliselt serveri kaudu. (Data are transferred securely via the server.)
