Uus korter.

New apartment.

A recently built or acquired home.

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'soolaleivapidu' is the most important tradition. Guests bring bread and salt to a new apartment to wish the owners luck and prosperity. There is a high value placed on 'uusarendus' (new developments) because they are seen as more prestigious and energy-efficient than Soviet-era blocks. A 'uus korter' is often expected to have 'skandinaavia stiil' (Scandinavian style)—minimalist, light colors, and natural materials. Estonians often find their 'uus korter' entirely online through digital portals, and contracts are often signed digitally using an ID-card.

💡

The 'Uue' Rule

Remember that 'uus' becomes 'uue' in almost every sentence that isn't just naming the object.

자주 묻는 질문

10 질문

Yes, it can mean that, or it can mean the building itself is brand new. Context usually makes it clear.

You say 'uues korteris'.

Yes, if it's new to you, you can say 'Mu uus korter', even if you are just renting it.

The plural is 'uued korterid'.

It is neutral. It's used in both legal documents and daily chat.

Black bread (leib) and salt (sool) are the traditional gifts.

'Kodu' means home (emotional), 'korter' means apartment (structural).

Ma otsin uut korterit.

Because Estonian uses cases. 'Uue' is the genitive form used for objects and possession.

It's better to say 'renoveeritud korter' to be precise, but 'uus' works if it's new to you.
