Plural direct object
[編集]In Partitive we learned that there are some verbs that distinguish between partial and whole direct objects like "võtma" - to take. In the whole case, these verbs took the Genitive instead of the Accusative. With plural direct objects, they will instead take the Nominative:
- Verb with distinction: Whole: ta võtab kruusi - ta võtab kruusid. Partitive: ta võtab .kruuse
- Verb without distinction: Whole: ta tahab seda - ta tahab neid. Partitive: ta tahab neid
Nouns
[編集]- raha (uncountable) - money
- töö - job, work
Adverbs
[編集]- ka - also, as well
- samuti - synonym of ka
- väga - very
- .liiga - too, excessively
- palju - many
- vähe - little, too little
- pisut - little
- veidi - synonym of pisut
- .liiga vähe - too little
- .liiga pisut - synonym of liiga vähe, but adopted from western European languages and might sound slightly foreign
- .piisavalt/.piisavasti - enough-adverbial. This is available in the two common adverb endings -lt and -sti
Verbs
[編集]- hoidma - hoia - to hold
- leidma - leia - to find
- üles leidma/leidma üles - üles leia/leia üles - whole of "leidma". "Üles" here is similar to "ära" in Partitive
- otsima - otsi - to look for/to search
