Pilti tegema

To take a photo

The act of capturing a photograph.

🌍

문화적 배경

Estonians are obsessed with nature photography. Taking a photo of a 'kukeseen' (chanterelle) in the forest is a rite of passage every summer. As one of the most digital nations, Estonians use 'pilti tegema' for everything from ID documents to parking apps. Estonians value privacy. It is polite to ask 'Kas ma tohin pilti teha?' before photographing people you don't know. The transition from 'making' art to 'making' photos is reflected in the language, showing a respect for the craft of photography.

🎯

The 'Of' Rule

Always use the -st ending for the subject of the photo. 'Pilti kassist' (Photo of a cat).

⚠️

No 'Take'!

Never use 'võtma'. It's the most common mistake for English speakers.

No, for video you should use 'videot tegema' or 'filmima'.

Neither is 'better', but 'pilti tegema' is much more common in casual speech.

You can say 'selfit tegema' or 'endlit tegema'.

Because it's an indefinite object in the partitive case.

Yes, but it sounds slightly more formal than 'pilti'.

Use 'meist' (of us) or 'nendest' (of them) before 'pilti tegema'.

Not at all! It's very common at tourist spots.

Use 'Ma olen pildi peal' or 'Ma jäin pildile'.

Historically yes, but today everyone will assume you mean photography unless you are holding a pencil.

It's a slangy way to say 'snap a photo', referring to the click of the camera.
