This is the 13th most frequent Estonian word.
pole
"Pole" in Estonian means "is not" or "there is not".
In this sentence, 'pole' is the negative short form of 'ei ole', used to express negation in combination with the verb 'ole' (to be). It conveys a negated state of being.
Ma ei pole kindel.
I am not sure.
Here, 'pole' combines with 'seal' (there) and works as a negation of the verb 'olema', indicating the absence of anything in the specified location.
Seal pole midagi.
There is nothing there.
In this example, 'pole' negates the possibility, denying the statement in a concise form of 'ei ole'. It emphasizes the impossible nature of the described situation.
