趣味小知识

The word 'ilma' also means 'weather' or 'air' in Estonian, which can be a bit confusing for learners. However, when used as a preposition meaning 'without', it's a different grammatical form altogether.

需要掌握的语法

The noun or pronoun following 'ilma' (without) is always in the terminative case.

ilma rahata (without money), ilma sinuta (without you)

The terminative case ending for singular nouns is typically '-ta' or '-tta'.

ilma mütsita (without a hat)

For plural nouns, the terminative case ending is often '-teta' or '-detta'.

ilma vanemateta (without parents)

When a pronoun follows 'ilma', it also takes the terminative case ending.

ilma minuta (without me), ilma temata (without him/her)

In some less common instances, 'ilma' can be used with the elative case to express 'without coming from somewhere', but for A1 level, focus on the terminative case.

ilma majast (without coming from the house - less common with 'ilma')

容易混淆的词

ilma vs ilma (noun)

This is the nominative singular of the word for 'weather'. So, 'ilma' can mean 'weather' or 'without'. Context is key here.

ilma vs välja arvatud

This phrase also means 'except for' or 'excluding', and can be used similarly to 'ilma' in some contexts, but 'ilma' generally means 'lacking' or 'not having'.

ilma vs puudub

This verb means 'is missing' or 'is absent'. While it expresses a similar concept of lack, 'ilma' is a preposition while 'puudub' is a verb.

容易混淆

ilma vs kaasa

'Kaasa' can be a bit confusing because it's used in several ways, often implying 'along with' or 'together with' but it can also indicate bringing something or someone.

It often combines with verbs to create compound verbs, changing their meaning. For example, 'kaasa tulema' means 'to come along'.

Võta sõber kaasa. (Take a friend along.)

ilma vs alla

'Alla' can mean 'down' or 'under', which can sometimes be tricky to differentiate depending on the context. It can also indicate moving downwards or a position beneath something.

It's a versatile word that functions as both a postposition and an adverb. As a postposition, it requires the genitive case.

Koer läks laua alla. (The dog went under the table.)

ilma vs üles

Similar to 'alla', 'üles' means 'up' or 'above'. Its usage can be confusing when deciding if it refers to movement upwards or a position higher than something else.

It works as both a postposition and an adverb. As a postposition, it takes the genitive case.

Lähme mäest üles. (Let's go up the mountain.)

ilma vs peale

'Peale' can mean 'on', 'on top of', or 'after'. The 'after' meaning, especially when referring to time, can be quite confusing.

As a postposition, it generally requires the genitive case when indicating location or time. It can also be an adverb.

Pane raamat laua peale. (Put the book on the table.)

ilma vs läbi

'Läbi' means 'through' or 'finished', and these two meanings can lead to misunderstandings, especially in conversational Estonian.

When it means 'through', it acts as a postposition taking the genitive case. When it means 'finished', it's often used adverbially or as part of a verb phrase.

Jooksime metsa läbi. (We ran through the forest.)
