معنی
The activity of reading literature.
زمینه فرهنگی
Estonians have a 'Book Day' (Raamatu ja roosi päev) on April 23rd, where men give women a rose and women give men a book. The first Estonian book was a catechism printed in 1535. Reading has since been a symbol of resistance and preservation of the Estonian language. Public libraries in Estonia are free and very modern, often located in beautiful historical buildings or sleek new glass structures. It is common for Estonians to have large personal libraries at home, often covering entire walls in the living room.
The Partitive Rule
Always remember the 'ut' at the end of 'raamatut' when you are in the middle of reading it!
Use 'läbi'
If you want to impress natives, use 'Ma lugesin selle läbi' to show you actually finished the book.
