A description of a path or road.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Estonians love their 'raba' (bog) walks. The 'kitsas tee' here is usually a wooden boardwalk. It's a sign of respect for nature to stay on the path. The medieval streets of Tallinn are famous for being 'kitsad tänavad'. Some are so narrow that two people can barely pass each other. The 'kitsas tee' is a recurring motif in Estonian poetry, symbolizing the difficult journey of the Estonian people toward freedom. On a 'kitsas tee' in the countryside, it is polite to slow down or pull over if you see another car coming from the opposite direction.
The 's' rule
Remember that 'kitsas' loses the 's' in almost all cases except the nominative. Kitsas -> Kitsa.
Tea vs Road
Don't try to order 'kitsas tee' in a cafe unless you want the waiter to look at you very strangely!
