Boyutuna

Boyutuna is a Turkish grammatical construction formed from the noun boyut (size) plus the third-person possessive suffix -u and the dative suffix -na. The form literally translates to "to its size" and appears in phrases where size or dimensions determine how something is described, measured, or directed. It is not a standalone lexical item; rather, it is a case- and possession-bearing form that participates in larger noun phrases and clauses.

Common usages include expressions such as boyutuna göre ("according to its size") and, in context, boyutuna uygun ("suitable for its size"). The construction appears in design, logistics, and descriptive contexts where scale matters. Examples: "Kutu, taşınacak yükün boyutuna göre tasarlandı" (The box was designed according to the size of the load); "Ürün etiketi, kutunun boyutuna uygun olarak basıldı" (The product label was printed to fit the box's size); "Bu model, boyutuna göre değişen ölçüler sunar" (This model offers dimensions according to its size).

Notes: The interpretation depends on context, and boyutuna can refer to human-made objects or natural scales. It often features in phrases like "boyutuna göre" to express proportionality or adaptation, rather than indicating a fixed standalone meaning.
